My Ride: UK 2006 530D MSport. Auto, Silver Grey, Black Dakota, 172 19" Mixed Wheels, Visibility, Media Pack, Sun Protective Glass, Hi-Fi Speaker System, Heated Seats, Enhanced voice control, M Lip Spoiler.
I'm about to purchase a 2006 model 530D Sport in the UK. I know that there are some improvements to the gear change (smoother) but what else..? There is keyless start with now a Start/Stop button. Also believe there are some improvements to the ProNav as part of the media package. Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks
Thanks

Thanks, checked out the BMW News.
What is the improvements to the SatNav on the 2006 models? The car is ex-demo and has Hi-Fi speaker package fitted but I constantly here that this is still poor quality with the standard head unit. What are the options for upgrading this..Is there a Part No. for the ProLogic 7 system as an upgrade? I'd like still still use the iDrive functionality etc so I want to keep to BMW parts.
