| Local dealer (Melbourne) has a yard “full” of Ingenium 2L powered cars - waiting on parts for warranty repairs. No such issue with the 3L, which is what I have. No issues - touch wood. |

| Hopefully Pivi Pro voice control is better than my MY21 Duo Touch version. Limited functionality and very rarely understands what is being requested. Chalk & cheese compared to Siri. |

| Unrelated, but related… is a D300 the same engine as the D350, but with a different mapping? Does the D300 & D350 share the same model transmission/drivetrain? |

I cannot see a reason why you could not order from the UK.
