Welcome :)

The Carin system is a bit old, but still works OKish. Screen in wrong place, and control knob is awkward.

The disc can be got from the mapping companies, but they are not cheap.

Maybe someone here has a spare older disc, though less likely I guess.

You could try ebay, maybe someone has last year's disc, and has bought this year's, and wants to sell old one?  May be a grey area legally, so check with seller if he is allowed to transfer ownership... ;)
