You can tell the difference also by the cupholders built into the armrest. Standard versions are uncovered and the enhanced package has covered cupholders where the cover flips up to reveal them. You can see this compartment cover in the view through the rear window in Ricracing's picture.

There are 2 different designs of headrest in the E60. The higher central rest is from the standard version and the lower one is the enhanced headrest/armrest combination like on my car.

Was the enhanced version an option?
Maybe BMW have now seen the light and let us poor UK folk have what the US customers have had as standard all along ie. advanced A/C and the better rear arm/headrest set up? Maybe it also comes with the split fold rear seat option, I don't know as I didn't get that?

Again, this could be a country specific thing - like USA gets enhanced A/C, we dont - we get PDC as std, you dont.....
Looking at it logically, UK has small parking spaces and crap summers, USA can have hot summers (70f is an average UK summer temp with nice days at 85f) and sensible sized parking spaces...
I cant see anything wrong with std climate control - but it is winter
. I didnt see anything lacking in my crappy renault very basic manual aircon either - over 2 summers...cheers

I allways have mine down and the two outside headrests all the way up.
But even if the ousides are down and the middle is up it doesn't look that ugly.
