2013 Freelander 2 SD4 XS Auto Orkney Grey

"Welcome to the United Kingdom"

Took the car out this morning for the first time since returning from Derbyshire on Monday. Sat nav wasn't active but after 1/4 mile she said "Welcome to the United Kingdom".

Has she been somewhere without me? Or is this anything to do with preparing for a Yes vote in the Scottish referendum? GONE - '07 TD4 GS manual Zermatt Silver

Mine does that about once a fortnight. She seems to think she's in Brussels for a few hundred yards, then relocates and welcomes me back. I blame the EU! Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone

That probably explains why she thought we were in Brussels when I got off the ferry at Bilbao, having travelled from Portsmouth. We were out of the port before she figured out where we really were. GONE - '07 TD4 GS manual Zermatt Silver

Never had this, but if you change discs 1-2 and back perhaps it stops this. As I normally travel to either Holland or Belgium I change the discs on the dockside. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

Nope - no discs on MY13. It's all in the hard drive and can only be updated by a dealer. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone

Any storage device can be uploaded, changed and down loaded, just some are more difficult than others my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis

She may well have been "over the side", hussy! Fit a tracker to her, or chain her to the garage, in any event, find a good lawyer who specialises in motoring infidelities.....

Mine did it again today. I think she just does it to get attention. Ex AA Series III LWB Safari - Gone

I'd just need something to upload - no disks with the 13 MY. Dealer said it was all up to date at the first service in July.

I did get some POI uploaded once I had got them into the correct format. Upload was fine but it won't give me a list to search like Lady Garmin, just shows what is nearest. I know I can enter the local town but that is a faff. GONE - '07 TD4 GS manual Zermatt Silver

It's all in order Iliacus.
The Republic of Derbyshire is not within the UK as we do not recognise Westminster's or Regina's governance over our Mercian lands. Land Rover appreciate the sensitivity of our geopolitics and so accordingly advise its owners that they have left the safety and security of the Derbyshire Republic and entered the wild bad lands of the dissident filled UK.
