.....Volume, tone and four preset buttons is plenty good enough.  :D

We have been using the out-laws Citroen C4 Spacetourer (used to be Picasso) ... there's hardly a proper button on the entire car. It just has a silly touch screen that does radio, sat-nav, phone, vehicle settings & something else I can't remember. It has the most uninspiring instrumentation ever.

I'm curious.

With the upcoming changes to the highway code etc, would operating such a device become illegal?

Operating a French sh1tbox should already be illegal. ;)

In that case, same as mine....process is easy ...

I foresee a trip to Flintshire ....  ::) ::)

Sorry missed that.....

Its easy, but takes a couple of hours...If you dont fancy it, happy to try it, BUT IF it goes wrong, I have no way to recover it.
That would likely be a indy / dealer job with their computer.
