I was wondering about the heated seats - and integrated sat nav. :unsure:

No Yaris in the UK has heated seats. Not sure if you can spec JBL though which would come with integrated sat nav. Have a look at the options in the configurator?

Thanks Lauren. The comment was more tongue in cheek as I chose Circuit over Comfort. I may retro-fit sat nav (and having more units in the breakers will be good) at some point but the seats don't need heating as leather can, in the winter.

Haha, no problem. Have you tried using Carplay/Android Auto? The integrated sat nav is very mediocre indeed.
 
Uhm the German High Performance version has heated seats and steering wheel. And the 6 speakers. I don't think the navigation is needed due to android auto. But if you really want that sat navigation, you can fit it.

Carwhatwho auto? You're talking to a 57 year old who uses a PAYG mobile phone for calls and texts. ;) Porsche ICE is old fashioned but I used to get by okay with that. If it's at that level, I'll be happy.

I guess the Yaris isn't really designed for long journeys so I'll usually be in something else but for the odd occasions, my trusty Garmin sticks to the screen when I'm in unfamiliar territory (or want a base time to race) but I'd prefer not to have trailing wires.

Haha. Blimey, I'm 51 in a few weeks but fully up to speed with current technology. Even have Apple Pay on my phone and never use cash anymore. đŸ¤£ I suppose if you don't have a smart phone your options are more limited. The Yaris does fine on long journeys and is certainly comfortable enough. Given how big small cars are these days it's not that surprising.
 
Agree with Lauren, I'm an old fart myself but I'm not scared by technology. It's when you fall behind that you start to feel old.

Now back to my ticktock dance :)
