Hi Everyone

Hi all, great to join this community
Just picked up my 2018 Carpathian Grey P300 weekend toy. Love it!
Only really driven it back from the dealers so far, and put it in the Garage. hopefully manage to get it out this weekend if the rain ever stops.
I'm a long time Evoque Owner, one of the first off the production line, still going strong 8 years later and hopefully many more, and some will know me as one of the Moderators on the Evoque Owners club (not the only one here!) , and from BabyRR too.
Could really do with some advice from you knowledgeable members.
I have the In-control Pro (I think) Meridan surround system, on 19B software, but no Sim card, Evoque system is way older than this!
Was thinking to get a 3 SIM Payg+1 1Gb (200 MB free per month) for £10, is anyone using this? is it really £10 and never pay again unless you want to go over the 200Mb each month? Any other recommendations, i'm not really into paying monthly for stuff.
Given it's a weekend car, will 200Mb per month be enough for traffic and data and uploads etc.
Could I just use my phone Data and not bother with the sim, for occasional use?
I can't find any way in the menus to connect to the Home Wifi to do update checks, login/register etc, as mobile signal at home in non-existent anyway, is this not a feature?
Also after filling up with Fuel and driving away, the NAV screen dropped out black and started loading Dab still working, did this a couple of times, and also has gone completely Black and needed the car switched off for 5 minutes before it would come back. Seems there's a lot of these issues, but is this expected with 19B, or back to dealer, it's a bit too intermittent so would expect the No fault found if it goes back to a dealer.
Also noticed a small piece of sticky back black plastic rolled up in the headlight behind the front glass, guessing this wont be easy to get out! (LED), so another reason for a dealer Visit.
Can't take it back to the supplying dealer (easily) so will have to use my local.
Other than that just need to get out and Drive it to enjoy it and so I can get some pictures!
Anyway Hi again, and looking forward to being part of this community
