RE: Changing Maps on Navigation
You could go to any LR dealer's accessory shop and spend something like £120 and buy the Dvd of European maps and insert that in the drive. I suspect you would then loose your US maps though.
A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

If they told you it would accept European maps I would insist on LR sorting it out even if you have to pay for the maps.
Can I ask why you seem to have paid a premium for a US spec car?

Haha, that makes sense if it's in dollars.
Welcome to the wonderfull world of LR. Sadly they appear tobe miles behind the Germans and Japanese maufacturers for after sales from my experience.
Good luck anyway
