Nav maps in UK

Im a new member but have read these boards with great interest for some months now as I'm interested in purchasing a new F10.

I read another thread about it being cheap to buy in the UK at the moment, and this opportunity interested me.

I want to order the professional Navigation and since I live in Sweden, I was wondering if I buy the car in the UK, the Nav will include maps of the whole northern/wester europe?

Wouldnt the steering wheel be on the wrong side for you if you bought it in the UK?

Maps should be the whole of western europe on the disc - it was on my 07 335.

Yes it would be, but you can order it with the wheel on the left side in the UK, not sure of the exact cost but atleast below 1000 euro.

Thanks for the info!

Have a good search around the F10 forum. There are one or two who have done this. A European spec car from Park Lane in London. A guy from Belgium iirc. No problems with the nav as far as I'm aware.

:edit:

Ask this guy http://f10.5post.com/forums/showpost...3&postcount=30

Yes, be sure to specifically request a LHD/ European Spec vehicle and make sure it's in your order form. LHD is supposedly cheaper than RHD, but not so if you buy from the UK apparently ;-) Nav is whole western europe + uk as far as I am aware but I can be wrong,.
