Beware when importing from the US as the Satnav systems seem to be incompatible. So an RRS bought in the US apparently won't work in Europe.

Obviously I've not seen the fact that it doesn't work myself, but it was discussed on here recently and I understand it was confirmed by LR customer service. If you want definite confirmation, I suggest you ask LR to confirm yourself 2009 Outstanding Contribution Award - Joint Runner Up 2009 'Tech-Head Of The Year' Award - Runner Up Like it here? Then Donate to RRSPORT!! |

Presume that means that PAG didn't use the same supplier across the board.

Even more reason for the diesel!! With German autobahns you will hate yourself for buying something without at least one turbocharger/supercharger. I speak from experience Swiss TDV8 with optional dog. |

I use my XKR every day. Its Supercharger is nice, but honestly not necessary. This week i get the RRS Diesel. Then i can compare. But the Satnav problem is a challenge. Maybe i buy the Babe here ... |

Re the Satnav System - here the original statement of Landrover Germany: " Just change the DVD and the system will operate in Germany as well as in the US" ...

Yep... to be honest, that's how I would expect the system to work too...

I have recently imported a rrs s/c from US. I have the car for 2 months now and I am very happy with it. There are some small differences between the european and us specs, but they mostly related to mutlimedia. The dvd changer has US region and I have problems changing it to european region, but I have a guy wirking on it now.
