I, too, like "Miss Moneypenny."
It was this forum that tipped me how to select the "British Babe" voice.

Well you have the US man and woman-boring- you have the German voice-slightly angry-, the Dutch voice-very angry-, and british woman's voice- hot and sophisticated.

It's done via the PCM. Turn on your radio. Hit the SET button. Select PCM. Select LANGUAGE. Select "ENGLISH GB." Hit the MAIN button to exit and...you're done.
I'm assuming the "GB" means "gorgeous babe," but it could be Great Britain.

Without having to thumb through the 'Owners Guide' how do you adjust the volume level of the NAV voice.

Thanks!

I have the British woman; my wife has the British man in her Cayenne S.

Be careful - I once decided to try the Dutch woman, and the whole system switched to Dutch - had a difficult time navigating in Dutch to reverse the choice.

British chick in Cayenne and 997--I think that is the favorite "flavor."

If you trigger the voice, the volume **** will turn the voice volume up/down independent of the radio volume.

I think it was her knee that bumped the buttons and switched the language, but I was concentrating on her other parts so not sure.
