That's very generous, I'll take it. The Vel Satis has a 2002 disc in it, and so far nothing has completely confused either myself or the car!

If things change dramatically, thanks to your link I'm sure I'll have no trouble finding an update.

Do you have a Paypal account? If so, let me know your email address via a private message.

Thanks again Kev.

I've sent you an email.

It's best to edit your previous post and delete your email address.

I'm not absolutely sure why, but, it can cause you problems apparently.
Cheers, Kev

If the disc states UK then in theory it should include Northern Ireland for obvious reasons.

Since I'm of Northern Irish blood please remember (not to the OP) that Ireland in thoery relates to Southern Ireland/Republic of Ireland. Northern Ireland is not Ireland, infact no such place as Ireland :roll: :)

Exactly! Tell Citroen that please! My disc stated that it covered the United Kingdom... but Northern Ireland was not covered!

Now this disc says United Kingdom and Ireland, and it is covered... so I guess Citroen still think the UK only consists of England, Scotland and Wales!

I was in the process of bidding for a new map disc on ebay but was pipped at the post. So, I decided to see if any other site sold them.

I found a link to download the 2007/2008 maps for the C5 Carins system for free. I tried it and the CD i created works perfectly.

Send me a pm if you want the link to try it yourself.
Cheers, Kev

5Gb download at a very slow speed but it's almost all there :-)
