How do you get satellite view on your sat nav? I tried selecting "show satellite info" or something, but haven't managed to get it to shop satellite images. I have pro nav, in a 2015 car.

Sorry who are C2C?

I've not had a problem with Sytner Sheffield, I've always found the sales guys really good, however I dare say not the cheapest place to buy from. The deal on my 340i is around 2k better than the best Sytner would do.

All depends on which sales person you get doesn't it. The two people I dealt with there when trying to buy a M135i were extremely arrogant. Don't know if it's still the same but the sales guys can't even talk numbers with you, I had to wait around for 30 minutes to speak with the "Finance Manager" or whatever his title was. He then swerved all my attempts to pin him down to figure and just keep telling me that they would 'do me a great deal'. Pfft.

Anyway... are we all buying a 340i/440i then?

I find this practice very annoying.
You strike up a good relationship with the salesperson. He knows what u want and your back ground. You get to get a feeling how far you can push him. Then they wheel out the finance manager.and it all falls apart..............wtf.
I was ready to do a deal in sytner Newport and would have been flexible with the very pleasant salesman. But the finance manager was an idiot and I deliberately pushed too far and walked out.

Just to add another one to the thread (335i not 340i though). A trip i did yesterday, cruising at a decent speed when allowed, also included a short time of start/stop traffic on the M25, and getting into the outskirts of London. So 35mpg seems pretty decent to me:

Warm days, smooth running on motorways at cruising speed, we al hit our PBs right now yup.

Haha but when he says he floored it every opportunity while in sport mode at a cruising speed of 90 makes it hard to believe. I guess without flooring it and using sport mode he would have got 50-60 miles per gallon. Back in a day I used to walk to work in the snow uphill both ways lol.
Don't get me wrong, I believe those numbers are possible, but not by flooring it every opportunity and cruising at 90 mph
