OK, that is proably possible.

However, if I used the "destination map input mode", I could scroll the map over to Europe and view roads, etc.

Of course, an out-of-region map isn't particularly useful.
It may not say "wrong region", but it wont work (which has the same result).

The drive will accept the disc and as you say if you input a Uk address it will atampt to guide you (and fail).

But for the purpose of the question, no is a better answer as anything other than the correct region disc is a waste of time and money, so IMO a non starter.
