5 series phone cradle

[oldnewbie]

Am I correct in thinking that there should be a phone cradle in the centre console under the lid on all new vehicles fitted with pro media option?

I brought that up with the dealer then BMW.

According to them "The snap-in adaptor had never featured as standard on any vehicle we have ever offered for sale and has only ever been an Aftersales accessory, which I am sure you are aware. If you believe that the situation warrants it, I would advise you take the matter up with your Customer Service Manager.", at something like £200. (not sure of price now).

On the 3 series you don't get the cradle prep with Pro media, only EBT. Even then, to use it you need the cradle at £100-200.
