I had a diesel MY14.5 Outlander with the built in navigation.

I don't know how the system differs to phone based ones but it would still track the motion of the car accurately 10 levels below ground in a car park...

Perhaps it was somehow connected to the vehicle and was able to track the movements that way? As opposed to the phone GPS which would disconnect as soon as you got out of sight of the sky.

I miss my Outlander - bloody great car for the money.

what credibility do you give to Google reviews of a car yard.
Found a really nice Forester, staff were helpful, not pushy.Yarf was jammed with vehicles. Ones I looked at all appeared to be previously owned by SA people.... but I am suspicious if they bought cars interstate, then used a staff member or friends name and 'sold' or 'traded' into dealer. is hat possible or legal.

If a used car comes from NSW I reckon there's a benefit there because they have some yearly roadworthy process where a car has to go in for some form of an inspection, you can't have too much of a ****box like you can in VIC and SA.
