Hi Phil
I only just bumped into this discussion.

I imported a 2013 Xc60 very recently too. Awaiting DVLA registration now.

It has a SatNav (early sensus without the maps cd version). I want to change this to EU maps. Any advice? How do I go about finding the correct replacement unit from eBay without a item code to hand?

My key needs are:

1. Main cluster to have English language
2. Mph digital speed in trip computer (I want to keep the Mileage in Kms as it talleys with the car history easily then). The main speed clock is analog with only km/h markings.
3. English SatNav

Now how are you feeling about Adrian Flux?

Interesting post this - any updates on the car / issues / insurance etc ? I've been looking at some of the imports on eBay, V70 either T5 or T6.
