Is the radio in the 12c a DAB radio? If not are there plans to make it so?

Most definitely not, it's awful at the moment (even after updates). Doubt they'd ever do it.

Mclaren have declared DAB will not feature until there is a 'standard' and an add on HARDWARE will be sold if customers want DAB

Curious as DAB is standard on VW and other volume manufacturers.

Volume manufacturers being the key word there...
I'm pleased they are concentrating on the driving experience over the media, Porsche went that way and now make GT cars... not sports/driver cars apart from the odd excellent exception.

I cannot see the problem. If you are making the most technically advanced car, why not fit it with the most advanced radio sytem. Surely you are not suggesting they should settle with a longwave radio? Especially afer the hassle they had getting IRIS sorted out. DAB is an excellent system for radio in the UK. Driving experience and Media are two different things, I dont think addressing one is to the detriment of the other.

I think the Italian manufacturers were smart back in the day - no radio at all, just a spot in the dash if you wanted to add one.
