Harmon Kardon and widescreen satnav?

I can tell it has Bluetooth. Make sure you get the BT code when you pick it up. It likely won't work properly with a modern phone, but they'll charge you £50 to get the code if you forget and ask for it much later
Yep, it's even got freeview.

We had a few problems trying to get my ancient N95 to work with the bluetooth, but I've since found a workaround on the internet.

Apparently it'll work with an iPhone with the cradle thing from an X3 or the other option is to get an old phone just for the car.

I need to do something for my iPod too.

Good work, Graham! No messing

Looks like you have bought somehting exactly like I would. A rare model in a good colour with low miles, which makes selling on very easy. There are a lot of M3's to choose from but a CS is a good one to have for those in the know!
I think I knew this was the one as soon as the alert came through but there was still a lot of soul searching.

It's pure self indulgence but f**k it, I've been working my tits for ages and I feel like a treat.

I bet it works out cheaper to run than my £5k, 20 year old E30 too

There's a BMW link that's about £300 for your iPod, but there's an aftermarket one that works a lot better supposedly, especially if you have the satnav. I'll see if I can dig out the name

Saw that one too.

Nice to have options, there was nothing like this for the Scooby.

I think that means it's been upgraded.

The e39 upgrade is north of £500 iirc.

What other "options" has it come with?

Looks like a clean example.
