I would not put a parrot in my car. They are moody buggers and if it jumps off its perch and starts flying around while you're driving you'll probably have an accident.

Good advice indeed Jeff. Hadn't thought about that. :D

My mate said they don't go cheep, so I bought some parrot seed today and I'll try to grow one for myself. :P (groan)

Thanks mikesmith2939. That really helps. Gonna get one fitted on Monday.

Thanks Mike.

I spoke to BMW today, and they said that to retro-fit a Bluetooth system to the audio system could cost up to £4,000!!

So, it looks like it's the Parrot for me. I just worry that it will clutter up the dashboard, but I'll have a look at your idea.

Thanks again.

Hi all.

I was hoping someone could advise re the best handsfree solution. My E90 has telephone controls on the steering wheel and on the radio itself, but no bluetooth.

I would like any solution to include:

Bluetooth call answering,

voice dialling,

Music streaming from my android phone.

Do BMW offer a solution?

Has anyone tried a "Parrot" model with Unika? - I would rather not have additional controls on the dashboard.

Anyway, any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks Geoff.

My new baby....

Hi Geoff. I would love to upload some images, but although I've tried, I can't seem tom do it. Do I have to have a premium membership?

Thanks for your kind welcome.

I'm now in my mid fifties, but every time I look at my 'new' BMW, I get goose bumps and the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Is this normal? Will pass? :mellow:

Hi. I'm Richard. Lots of first time experiences for me: First ever BMW, first ever diesel and first ever automatic gearbox.

I was a dedicated ford owner, but so far I am loving my '07 320D SE.

That's great Steve. Thanks a lot.

I have recently picked up my new 07 plate 320d se and I am totally smitten!

I've never had a diesel not a turbo before and I have been doing some research into its care. I have read that at the end of a journey, the engine should be allowed to idle for about a minute. Does anyone have any advice about this?

Thanks
