Sat Nav France

Just to let you all know I have just come back from driving the Evoque to France and the sat nav was superb it took me to the exact place and we covered a total of 1600 miles and she never put a step wrong, absolute joy.

Geezer
I too went to France and drove on to Tuscany and back, the sat nav was superb, contrary to some of the claims made by the sat nav whingers on the forum.

RE: Sat Nav France

Hi, sorry to change the subject slightly but I'm driving to Southern France in six weeks and really appreciate your post re the satnav however can you advise if any modification was required for the headlights (xenons) as I've had differing opinion from several sources, including dealers. Thanks.

No adjustments needed to headlights I think they're already set up for EU driving according to the manual. I drove from the north of France right down to the Côte d'Azur then across to Italy and back without any issues.

Definitely no change needed to headlights, my dealer assured me the lights are set up for both sides of road.
Regards and enjoy.

RE: Sat Nav France

How bizarre, some french users reports that they receive their evoque with uk headlight fitting and do the modification at their dealers

Certainly some swap until construction?,,
