I've got an Origin B2 which has been renamed Pogo over the years and can't fault it operationally :happy2: However, it keeps loosing connection with the satellites in my Mk 5 and I'm not sure why. Sometimes it won't even pick any up at all. It may be to do with my positioning of it but it was a lot more reliable in my Mk 4. When it works though it's a great piece of kit.

Yes both are in the wrong, trying to put across 3 MPH over the limit may not be as bad as the drunk, no insurance or mot idiot who didnt get penalised when he went past at 30.
Also another point GTI doing 33MPH someone steps out infront of them Vs 15 year old heap doing 30 with a half blind duffer driving, who would you edge you bets on?
I know which I would!
I think the trouble in this country is the "Speed Kills" slogan driven down everyones throat when its various parameters which effect the whole "Car safety"
Phew thats better!! :happy2:

Hi Claire :happy2:
I'm wondering if your Pogo satellite connection problem is due to where you have it positioned in the car. Have you tried various positions? :innocent:
Mine is positioned with maximum open 'view' to the heavens and I don't get such problems.

....Sorry cossy - I took your words a bit literally - I see your point and agree :happy2:
The "Speed Kills" is a totally ignorant knee-jerk reaction and introduced by people who obviously don't know how to drive safely. We all know that it's INAPPROPRIATE speed which can kill but we live in a 'blame culture' :sad1:
Everytime I return to the UK by car I am immediately hit by an uncomfortable 'Big Brother Is Watching You' feeling - It doesn't help good driving but then I soon get used to it again. It is depressing though.

I have had one for 9 months and it's an awesome bit of kit for the money.
