Tim - I thought we'd booked you as guest speaker?

Is this DVD comment relevant to all units or only upgraded?
Whilst u sit there, pls work out how to fudge the stereo and put mp3/wma files onto the HDD!
Chris - Can you not just use a memory stick via USB? I've got a Meridian USB demo stick which plays fine in Evoque and my RRS. When viewed on the PC they are MP3 files playable via media player. I appreciate you asked if they can go onto HDD but a USB is nicely hidden under the arm rest.

The FFRR managed to do the run from Stirling to Park Royal using only 2/3rds of a tank of diesel, it's the best fuel consumption. I've ever had from it - the trip computer average managed to click up to 36.5mpg while cruising down the mikes and miles of 50mph section of the M1 passing Bedford, by the time I arrived it was back down to 34.8mpg, not bad for 3.6ltrs of torquey twin turbo V8 pushing 2.6 tonnes of brick through the wind! I cruised most of way at 70 with the odd blast to get passed others!
Mine was the same on its final voyage. 22mpg for over a year, then as soon as its on the way for trade in: 30mpg!
They must know!!

James - that sounds like a very sensible solution! Thank you.

Daigriff - I have ordered a Dynamic 5dr SD4 Auto in OG, 20'' shadow alloys, pan. contrast roof and a few other toys !
cjfp - I guess your build will take longer as they will pay special attention to edging your matts !!

Where to put the DVD to play it? In the cd slot where-else might it go?

Dunno. Just the first time I've come across this so all exciting. Wonder if u can upload dvd's as this might explain some of the mkting docs that talk about the HDD being able to hold '10 DVD/CDs' as the space required for the two are very different. This new news has made me v excited.

I think I'll have to levy a charge for road testing and photographing my car, donations to Martin. When I asked the hotel staff about using the Range Rover parking method they asked if I could park on the street in front of the hotel so they could have a look and could I also demo the Park Assist on
Friday !
