i own a 2010 rs and it would appear the maps are from 2010 as well.
what is the best / most cost effective way to upgrade the maps?

Have a read of this thread, yes its long. in the last few posts, there is a link to download the latest maps.
WHile youre at it, maybe install new firmware. but make sure youre installing the correct version

I did that, and also installed the Custom POI.
Restaurants in the sat nav with phone numbers and icons? Yes please. Also, servo's, maccas, speed cameras (!!!) etc good to have too

Apologies for my total ignorance, but does this all relate to updating the std Nav sys that came with our Octavia II Scout 2010 (Columbus? RNS510 - same thing?)? I'm keen to update but have never tried loading anything onto it. I'm assuming I need to update the firmware and then download the later version maps? Is the only way to install/update to install CDs/DVDs? Ours has a USB cnxn for iphone in the glove box? Any use?
Is there an idiot's guide from square one?

Updating is via CD/DVD only. can't use SD-Card or USB connection.

Instructions ..
Download the file in my last post Burn it to a DVD-R using imgburn at no more than 4 spd
Insert into RNS510/Columbus, wait 15 minutes observing the stages on the screen Hold breath it will tell you when its finished.
No need to update firmware to update maps.
Go back through the thread there are pictures of the screens that appear when updating. Simples
