I've got the older pre touch iDrive and it works a treat. Reads out texts and emails. Good enough for me. The new touchbad system needs Enhanced Bluetooth to work in this way. Sometimes old is gold.

That deal looks similar to tilsuns. Just shows you should shop around more than i originally did!!

Yes, don't buy a 335d, we don't want them to become too common....

So for me to have texts and emails read out i would have needed to add £1000 for prof nav and a further £430 for enhanced bluetooth!!

BMW do take the piss with some of their optional equipment don't they!!

I think prof nav should be half the price, as it would still be 4 times the price of a top spec tomtom, and enhanced bluetooth should be standard as i believe it is with some small korean cars costing 1/4 of a 330d!

The Germans have been pulling our plonkers for many years. WW1 -they sort of lost, WW2 - they lost but it took the whole world to beat them to pulp and in reality it was the Russians who really won WW2 in Europe, WEconomicW3 - they've won hands down and will keep winning. They are a very organised, well edjucated, non-corrupt and smart working people. I love Germany and would have lived there if I was fluent in German.

Just look at the figures: Over 50% of world car profits are from 13 Premium Brands. Over 90% of those profits are by the German Big 3, Merc, BMW, Audi. So these big 3 Germans account for 45%+ of all motor industry profits.
Simply staggering.

A United Germany only came into being in 1871. So it's a relatively young country.

Business Nav is basic, you should go for the Pro-Nav IMO.

I use tomtom on my iphone so only got nav because it costs barely any extra a month on pch due to residuals, and the screen & controller look & function better than the non nav ones.
I don't need the hdd as usb stick is fine, i don't need facebook, weather, internet etc as can do it all on iphone. Remote app would be nice, but not worth £15-20 more a month.

Anything i missed?

On pro nav you can. Only when stationary though, unless coded.

Well that quite cool. I nearly always have my ipad with me, which has a bigger screen for watching videos anyway.
