Hiya folks
After perusing this and other BMW forums for the last few months i am finally biting the bullet and signing on the dotted line for my first BMW tomorrow.
Any one in the UK have the service package, i will be doing about 25,000 miles a year and will have the car for three years.

It's going to be a 520d SE, Deep sea blue metallic, Media pack, 244 wheels.Standard Anthracite cloth seats (as i don't like the feel of leather).
Delivery some time mid to late september.
Got a cracking deal from the dealer things are obviously hard out there for them at the moment.

I don't have service pack on my current E60, but on my previous E60 (53 plate 545i) I bought it nearly new and it DID have the service pack (which transfers with the car). I have to say it was fantastic for me. But then my wife doesn't drive 25k miles p/year. If I remember correctly, it worked on whatever came up first .. 50k miles, or 3 years of motoring.
