Read it carefully Ken, it doesn't include an TV tuner, do you really want to pay £650 just for an interface!
They've been doing them for a while, judging by the lack of posts on here about them nobody's fallen for it yet The End

I noted that bit. Had a front TV in the M Class never used it. Still very interested in getting the DVD to work on the front screen thou (Never quite sure what my daughter is laughing at when I'm driving along) & yep £650 is alot for an interface

Not paying £650 to find out Sky TV on the phone is good enough for me

I have the NavTV interface (stuck in box at the moment since the main dealer removed it after fitting it and deciding it was the cause of all the car's problems including the squeaky rear wiper).
It is exactly identical to this eBay product and all it provides is the ability to display any video source, TV, computer, DVD etc., on the front screen with the added advantage of a TV-DVD button, along with a stereo input.
Although you see channel buttons 1-10, only one actually works - it sort of fools the system into thinking a TV is attached and displays a TV icon on the LCD infotainment display. The touch screen functions work so you can select 16:9 and zoom (I think), but you still need to add a tuner and diversity antenna if its telly you want.
The image can be displayed whilst moving, so it bypasses any 'Nanny controls'. I believe the NavTV sells for £795 retail, and I probably will get around to re-fitting it myself when I have the time. Installation wise, it appears like it will take longer to remove and replace the dashboard than actually fit the interface.
Nice bit of kit, but agree pricey D3 HSE V8...
