Never mind... :aidan

Ive converted the gdb files you have hosted on here into TT ov2 files for those with Riders and ive made a single file for the whole of europe removing 4 duplicates from that file.

Ive not tested them so plz let me know if they are ok!

Thanks zerocool. :thumb
 
I have attached a new dealer list for France in .GDB format. If you convert these to . GPX and upload these as POI's into a Zumo, you will be able to dial the numbers from the phone book.
It includes the new dealer at Calais/Coquelles. I have used the dealer list from BMW France and tried to verify that those that have disappeared from the last list have indeed done so. The "dropped" dealer that does not mention the F800GS/F650GS has been omitted, for example. And the so-called current BMW dealer who has recently moved premises & is only advertising Hondas on his website has also been omitted.
I have done my best!

As a bonus I have also attached a new list of dealers in Eastern Europe (CZ,HU,PL, HU and Slovakia). Thank you CN2008 - wading thru Hungarian websites is an unusual sort of masochistic pleasure!

Thanks for this although two weeks too late. I went to the dealer at Brive-la-Gaillarde and found a citroen dealer instead. :mad:The one at Limoges was also half a kilometre away from the original GPS location. It is located above a Mazda dealer. Very helpful though fixed a front split brake hose immediately. Please remember though that Moto dealers in France do not open at all on Sundays or Mondays. :confused:

This deserves comment - do not trust "my" waypoints as gospel - and France is especially troublesome.
The BMW website shows the dealer in Avenue de President Kennedy. The Mazda webiste shows the dealer is in Avenue du Président John Kennedy, Viamichelin shows an Avenue du Président John F Kennedy and also an Avenue du Président John Fitzgerald Kennedy. If one googles Mazda Limoges one gets 404 Route de Toulouse but the pop-up map beneath the "quote bubble" shows Rue de Toulouse.
The French attitude is like that of my teenage son, "Whatever!".
You'll have to ask for the Mazda dealer!

So as far as the dealer in Mazda/BMW Limoges is concerned, I have found two different "location map-pins" and, sitting here in my study, I can't confirm which of the two is correct. If anyone can clarify, I'm sure the board would be grateful!
 
I down-loaded a few of these BMW dealerships onto my GPS for a recent trip to Italy.

I had to pay a visit to a dealer on my way to Venice & the premises I was directed to was a car dealership.

May be worth double checking any waypoint you use before you save it to your GPS.

Agreed. The Italian dealer network has undergone quite a few changes since I last looked at it! it´s on my list of things to do.

I've checked beemerboy9's version of Holland, but it seems to be not up to date.
Some dealers are not in it, some dealers have moved, some dealers have disappeared.
My version contains also address, telephone number and web-address (when available).

You can find the files here
The .zip contains seperate files for the countries, .gdb .gpx .gpi and .bmp files
 
Thanks for all the work KSM. I've downloaded your file, but it only covers Be, De, Dk Nl and Se - can you post another one with the remaining countries?
 
Hi Tomcat,

I would have uploaded them if I had them..
In my previous post I said I only had some countries.

The list of websites was meant to help those who want to contibute to the list.

As I wil be going to "Die Schweiz" next year I will try to that myself.

Made Suisse this afternoon.
Didn't figured out the transparency for the icon yet.
Zumo-users will see the BMW icon on their screen when the gpi file is used.
 
Blue Bell, Crewe removed because it is no longer a bike dealership & the new Chester BMW added.

updates available??

Does anyone have an updated list of BMW dealers, Europe and possibly Asia? 208 links no longer work and BMW wants to keep the list that they without any doubt have double top secret. Yes I can look up indiividual loacatios on their website, but I want a list. When stuck along side the road I most likley will ahve trouble getting on the internet to look up the closest one.

Yes. I was reading down the list to share how I did it as I had the same question. Its not difficult. I downloaded the free software GPSBabel (there's a Mac version too) and it allows you to convert files to a huge number of formats including gpx. then with the Oregon's equivalent (presumably) of the Garmin POI Loader, you select the folder you put the new gpx files in and it loads them to your device.

I loaded the original database from the start of this thread so I don't know how up to date they are now. I will need to check
