Hello all!
Have a UK CT4 with standard headlights.

Just wondering if I need the usual nasty headlight deflectors or if there's some clever tech that can dip the headlights to the right side when in mainland europe?
Travelling through France, Italy and returning via Monaco - IONITY network seems impressive for the journey.

Any general advice / travel tips would be really welcome!

Cheers!

There's a setting in the PCM somewhere to change the lights to Euro - I've already read on here that the car prompts you to do it when it starts up and is in mainland Europe.

Hope the trip goes well, I'd be interested to hear how you get on because that same trip is on my list to do in the Taycan

Perfect, thanks both!
Have seen a router planner (ABRP) recommended on another thread so going to give that a try.

No road trips from you of late TB (that I am aware of).

Any planned? Or have I missed some.?
Suckered into work at the moment! But we do have a 15-day "summer" trip planned to the Alps – including Slovakia and Czech Republic/Czechia for first time.

We set off first week in Sept and even though some of it will be travelling over "old ground" – we will be writing it up here.

Looking forward to the Turbo S on the mountain passes!
