And how can you comment it? How visible in E30 is display? How accurate it navigate? It is the only one BMW sat-nav which can be fitted in E30 and I like "clean" dash so I want to know is it worth to change Garmin for this.
Cheers,

Love it! Used to have a tomtom & the becker's just way better. Looks right in the dash, clear display, nav's fine - (as long as you're not someone who likes to be staring at a screen) audible instructions (mixed over whatever you're listening to, so you can hear em however loud your music is ) are more important & safer than detailed maps anyway imho.

Sound quality as a CD player is great, it's really user friendly, easy to connect to your mp3 player (no ipod interface though, just aux-in on this model), erm... don't know what else to say really!

I've got another one that'll be going in my second car (when I get one) - that probably says enough.

Sorry for delay I was very bussy last week.
Is it using the same CD's with maps as later BMW satnav's?
Big thanks for so many infos.

Almost certainly not... there are update CDs available from Becker though, or on certain might-be-less-than-legal common filesharing sites.

Do you know about anyone who is selling the CD's with Gatso's and other friendly-equipment-on-the-side-of-the-road?
