New navmaps

Thinking of updating the satnav maps in my F20. Anybody have any experience dealing with http://bmwupdates.co.uk/? 40 quid for 2016 Europe maps including FSC code sems like quite a good deal to me.

Unless anyone here knows different...

I'm fairly certain that's who I used: all fine.
Got for USB rather than download though; the latter is a right PITA.

In what way? If it's a matter of download time I have a fast internet connection and can find the time. Or is it more a matter of preparing a flash drive in such a way that the car can see it?

I spent hours trying the download (Mac) and had to use all sort of patch software. I gave up in the end and some of the software trashed my Mac.
With the stick, you just plug it in.

Thanks for that. I'll have a think about this, as download seems to be the only option I can find.

Just found the place I used; very good customer service (which I needed!)

Thanks again

There's only about a fiver difference between the two sites (for download - USB works out more expensive) so now I have more decisions to make
