Simple question for you all. I'm just looking for views and thoughts, rather than balanced feedback on my vanity! I've just started a new job. It's great, but the car scheme is very limited, I've gone from a fully free choice to a list of 3! Before I can choose a new car, I have to endure an allocated existing car.

Current allocation 2014 Base 520d. It's metallic with prof nav, 17 inches and nowt else. I'll need to chalk up 50k to change (14 months) whilst bathing in a sea of beige leather!

On offer is identical 2014 520d. Only Business nav, but totally all the other toys, lots of black trim and 19's. I'll have it for 18-24 months. It's, much, much prettier. I know the ride will be worse, but I've had the same wheel spec for 5 years and can easily live with it.

Question is, will the business nav be man enough for 1000 miles a week, given I don't think it has intelligent re-routing and I don't know if my iMusic will be playable?

Thanks all....

I have a 520 MSport with pro nav, and I didn't know the basic one didn't have intelligent re-routing (talking about traffic, yes?).

Try here.
