Similarly if you go to other screen on iDrive and it is not ready then it shows you the BMW animation. So yes it also depends what screen you were at when you turn off the car.

If you take longer to turn on the car from the time you unlock it then the iDrive (or Nav) might load in the background and so when the screen turns in wont show any of the 2 animations.

That is my theory and I am sticking to it!
I think you're right about that

It only seems to show those animations when you turn on the car immediately after unlocking and getting in ... if you delay 10-20 seconds after unlocking the car it seems it then has enough time to initialise everything in iDrive before the screen lights up so doesn't need to show an animation
