Being from the U.S., I'm not sure if there is a difference, but here
all GPS navigation information and POI's here are stored on DVD or CD
depending on the year of your Audi vehicle. Updated disks can be
purchased with worldwide compatibility at www.navteq.com. I ordered
my update disk for my S8 in April, and am today ordering the DVD for
my A8L that I purchased (used) yesterday now.
Hope that helps.

Interestingly, if you choose "United Kingdom", then Audi is not listed!!
