My Ride: E60 530d Sport - Carbon Black, Black Dakota Leather, Media Pack (satnav, bluetooth, CD changer), heated font seats, through load
Finally collected my new 530d Sport today. It was dark by the time I checked everything out, so the first pics aren't great.
Even in the showroom light, the carbon black paint is fantastic.
Interesting that the UK sport has 245 tyres all round. I read that the South Africa sport pack was 225 up front.
Satnav came with 2004 DVD, so I asked "where's my 2005-1 DVD". Will have that soon.
anyone need a slightly used 2004 DVD 
I'm going to take some more pics tomorrow. Especially of the interior. I've also got a copy of the new Sport Model brochure. If anyone's interested I will scan it, and post a link here.

Great ride BBox,
So you don't have staggered wheel set up as we do huh? Anyways, the M-sport pack looks terrific. Just wondering, is 530d available alongside 535d? If so, what is their price difference?

Yes, a bit odd that shaky one. I think it must have not used flash, and a slow shutter speed.

Media Pack,Visibility Pack,Through Load,Logic 7,Electric Seats,Sun Protection Glass,Maple Wood,Lumbar Adj,Heated Seats,Folding Mirrors
I'd love to see a copy of the Sport Brochure, I collect my car in 2 weeks....can't wait! The 535d also has the upgraded AirCon as additional spec to the 530d so I think the extra spec comes to about ?1700. I wonder if anyone is ordering the Sport in anything except Carbon Black? I was going to go for Silver Grey as I have a Carbon black M3 at the moment and it's so hard to keep clean but I just couldn't resist because it's such a great colour!
Congratulations on the car!
