Natural brown Dakota leather
Black trim

19" 172s
Media pack ( prof nav , voice control , bluetooth etc)
Visibility Pack

spoiler
sunroof
sun protection glass
folding mirrors
Hi fi speakers
Advanced AC
Poss options:
USB
Night vision (I like my toys
Any suggestions that people may have will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

car !I don't see cupholders, are those standard equipment in the UK ?
If not, order them because a retrofit will cost x-times more.
And I thought USB is standard ?!

Yeah cup-holders are standard here ( there would be a boycott of BMW if they werent!)
I'm sure USB is an option ( AUX input is standard though). I will go check it again now.

Release cash???? man, I had to pay extra to trade my 535d in for a 520d, and I assume you will be too...
Just spent the weekend in london, and I must admit, I saw far too many 520s there But then again, if you are "parked" on the m25, it really does not make a difference if you have 177hp or 286hp
btw - never looked back - the decision to downgrade was the way to go...
