Any one know what was in the media and visibility packs in 2006?, im looking at a december 2006 530d m-sport and wanted to know the options. thanks.

 

Hey looks like your heading the right way with your potentially new car.

I think media pack consists of Bluetooth prep, cd changer, telematics and professional sat nav. visibility pack consists of adaptive xenons, headlight washers

 

chears jas, dropped a deposit on a car, will know tomorrow if i can have the finance or not.

 

i had both them packs

the satnav and bluetooth where VERY useful

visibility pack is useless apart from the xenon lights look cool, the lights turning around the corner is fecking useless never noticed it once

 

Car also has high beam assist and dab radio too

 

All need is folding wing mirrors and your set. Although you know how to retrofit these anyway

 

if i have this car i wont be having folding mirrors this time around, this is the only car i can afford on my budget.

 

I agree with russdx, When I was looking for mine, it had to have visibility and media package and the 172 alloys, anything else I considered a bonus. But yeah the fact the lights turn when you turn isnt really that big a deal, but the xenons for me on looks are better. In hindsight electric seats mirrors and usb should of been on that list also, but i guess budget dictates.

Hense i discovered this forum, and all I have been doing for the 3 months since ive had it is a hell of a lot of reading!!

 

I guess the headlights tracking the your steering depends on what type of roads you drive. I live in an area where street lighting is limited combined with streets filled with lots of turns (I love the roads that lead to the house), initially I thought this feature was more of a gimmick boy was I wrong. There are two features that I feel make the e60, the active stabilization system and the swiveling headlight feature.

 

I do allot of night driving so good headlights are a must.
