My First BMW

Hi
I have just bought my first BMW its a late 2013 320d with xdrive. I am struggling to get my head around what I can and cant get if I pay the £165.00 that BMW are asking me for the basic connected services. My car has the sat nav but is the one with the smaller display so not the 'professional' The connected drive site says that I have 'teleservices' and 'intelligent emergency call' booked. most of the other services aren't available for my car. Does anyone know what I would get for my £165? I am really very confused and online searches are confusing me even more.
Other than this I am loving the car and finding the forum really helpful - Thank you :-)

Welcome!
I wouldn't bother with the rest to be honest. You can use waze on your phone for a decent Sat nav, pro nav looks pretty but is equally as shite at traffic avoidance. I have used the concierge service about 6 times in 20 months of ownership.

More importantly that 165 quid is half a tuning box for more power or towards some acs springs or a black grille and 100 quid towards above etc etc etc
