Not a problem now though, now I know what makes it happen, the 2 presses, I won't use it unless I need it. |

That's great, if you want something more accurate. But if almost every other sat nav shows it, the mapping BMW surely buys in should have it.

On the basis of the last couple of days I'd say the SLD is a complete waste of £220. So far it's shown:
30 in a 50 zone 30 in a 60 zone 60 in a 40 zone and 50 in a 30 zone And I'm pretty sure I've got a fecking ticket today because it was still showing 70 half a mile after I'd passed a 50 sign without noticing. Wunderbar! |

Beautiful car. I am pricing up a 440i GC too. What colour are your 704M wheels - orbit or ferric grey?
Thanks |

Really nice car that, looks great in that colour combination. I also made the assumption when buying my current car that speccing the top media/navigation option that I would have the speed limit displayed, as it was on my £100 Tom Tom. It was on the demonstrator that I took out before ordering my next one though and I found it to be really useful so I made sure I put it on the order. It seemed to work pretty well during the 24 hours I had the car, changed immediately when passing speed limit signs and its an always on feature which I never realised, I thought it would just be there when using the sat nav guidance

So BMW's SLD is based on mapping or camera?
I don't have it on my BM and always regretted it as Mrs Bean has it on her Merc GL and it works superbly. I thought they were all by way of the camera behind the rear view mirror interpreting road signs at the side of the road, clearly BMW must have it set up wrong if it can't do that. I have to say the Merc system is 100%, the only one it missed recently was due to an overgrown hedge obscuring the sign. |

The speed data is surely in there for calculating journey times, it's just hidden. On the plus side my observation skills have improved over the last month! |
