Becker navigation in Mercedes B-Class

I have recently bought a 2012 Mercedes b18 which is wired for sat nav, I wish to purchase a used Becker sat nav and have spoken to both Syntner (main dealer) and Mercedes head office in Milton Keynes. Both decline to give me the correct number for a Becker unit for my car. It seems it is their intention to try and force me to by a new unit at what I believe at £500 is an excessive price, can you help?

You need to find a specialist who can. The reason for the dealer and for MB's reticence is "How does a satnav for a 2012 B-Class become second hand?" The most likely reason is that it has been stolen.
