Using a "test" or "trial" activation?  Or did you buy it :o

Got access to a VCM by any chance?  Tempted to buy one (lack of faith in my knocked off Mongoose), but even the Chinese knock offs are well over £200 :o

Cats and middle sections bog standard. Long story, but it once had bosses welded in, which means it's gonna be tricky to weld new ones in.

No, full job, 18c software fully supports it but you have to use Pathfinder (or SDD for the older cars) to enable it within the IMC......JLR get no money when this is turned on (the stealers pocket the lot). Got access to the genuine kit here including the delights of a Toughbook  :y
