3 Series, Business vs Pro Navigation

[agent006]

Can't get a straight answer out of the dealer, BMW website is basic at best.

Anyone actually know what the extra £500 for the Professional gets over the Business Navigation apart from the bigger screen?

The Extra £445 upgrades the single slot CD player to a single slot DVD player, plus you get voice control, built in hard disc so you can pop a cd in and it will ask if you want to save it to the hard drive, plus you get a USB data port in the glovebox and you can get 3D map view.

HTH, in my opinion worth the extra £445

As above, although I thought that the USB was an additional extra - I certainly paid extra for it on my 2010 3 series in addition to professional navigation.

If you go into a dealer and get the new 3 series brochure, there is some info on both systems - IMHO professional navigation is worth the extra. (I can e:mail you a scan of the appropriate pages if you PM me your contact details)
