Hi Jon D, I do agree some of the maps are nice on the big screen. But even on my 2012 F11 the maps are way out of date compared to the TomTom. TomTom's timing for arriving at the destination is far more accurate than the BMW. May be partly because TomTom selects a better route as well.

If you are lucky enough to have reception in areas where you park then may be it works ok for you but it certainly fails for me.

I really wish I could report that it works well. But it needs fixing. It probably is just a uk problem.

The 7 digit postcodes have a lot missing. Many places I go it does not find them at all, but they work on the TomTom fine.
Try Tr2 5JF for the Trethem caravan touring park in Cornwall. The BMW has no idea where it is.!!!

Biggest problem is there is no place to nicely mount a TomTom
