Just been looking at a few old model 7 serieses, and a few of the adverts mention the TV screen, but don't mention Satnav. Just wondering if the two were bundled together, i.e. if there's a TV screen there's also satnav.
Any ideas?

A UK car that has TV function does have Nav too. On the EU models it was possible to spec TV with on board monitor (Computer) without Nav, but not on UK cars.

It was possible to spec TV, but not Nav... An odd thing to do on such an expensive car.
Retro Nav is possiblem but expensive and you need some patience. Better if buying used to find a car with...

Just because it has a moniter it doesn't = Sat-nav!

p.s Earlier models listing a Comunications pack as an option = Telephone

that was a costly fook up I tell you

Just found something intresting. If you take the CD out the Satnav option disappears from the menu.
I just wondered if that was the case from the ebay one?
