Do you know how to select "Map facing north" or "Map direction of travel"? It's at the same place that you can select Perspective.

If you don't have Perspective. You need a CIP upgrade, it's free only if there is other problem that require a CIP upgrade. They won't upgrade the CIP for free by asking for Perspective.

I've been reading that there is a software update v27 for Mark IV Sat Nav systems which can provide the satnav perspective view.
Is the E60 sat nav the Mark IV version and can we use this software update on it?

I don't think so. I'm pretty sure that the "Mark" versions are only on cars without iDrive...
