You could change the language version of VC(Voice Commands) from german to english.
I did't noticed that language selection of VC is not same as of navigation when I ordered mine as MY06 525d.
After delivery it was same as yours then I asked my dealership to replace the software for VC.
They could do it a day at workshop but as a result of that language selection of navigation changed too.
It might affect resale value because it was deleted german language in both VC and navigation while car
is used in germany.

two choices only.

Either your dealer needs to recode it into another language for you OR you need to go back to school to learn German (or get a german passenger to do the commands for you)

You can't do it yourself, as far as I know

It's true, your dealer has to do it for you. I have my car changed from German to Dutch. Perfect (for me it is!)
