Hello, I am new to this group.

We will be renting a car in germany in March and were looking at a BMW
3-Series with built-in nav system.  I know for 2007 models, that would
be considered iDrive, and I am therefore wondering if it is
functionable in ENGLISH as well (remember, this is in Germany)?  If,
by chance, we do not receive a 2007 model, would the 2006 model be
compatible w/ English?

Any nav. system users out there that would know....thanks!!

Of course it's available in English - just ask the hire company to get it sorted
for you however, I suggest you don't ask for real English from the East end of
London or it might tell you to "turn right you f.cking moron..."
