A mate with a 10 year old Skoda Octavia that he bought while still under warranty went into the main dealer to say he had a fault with the lights in the bottom of the front bumper. The dealer said these were cornering lights and they were not activated unless he paid £80. Everything was there including the bulbs but the software needed activation.
He didn't bother and when he went to a specialist once the warranty had finished they switched them on for free.
On my Transit van it has the basic display but apparently the dealers can switch on loads of other bits and even cruise control is only a switch and a software click to activate and my van is 12 years old.
