Hi guys,

you all probably know that my 525xi is no more. After a long decission time i made the order and went for my ultimate diesel

. I first had doubts about an 525d or 530d but since taxes here in Belgium are almost the same for 530d and 535d, i went for the last one

. Otherwise i liked the Deep Sea Blue on pictures but when i saw it for the first time in real life, i wasn't convinced. So i went for the good ol' carbonblack which i still am in love with.

So here is the list:

BMW 535d facelift
Carbonschwarz
Leather dakota schwarz sport seats
Brushed Aluminium trim
337 ///M sport pack
217 Aktivlenkung
229 Dynamic Drive
235 Trailer clutch
322 Comfort Access
323 Soft Close Automatic Doors
403 Sunroof
430 Automatic Dim interior & exterior mirrors
459, 4MA Sport Seats with memory
465 Foldable rear seats
494 Heated frontseats
496 Heated backseats
508 Park Distance Control
522 Xenon Headlights
524 Adaptive Headlights
534 Klimaautomatik
563 Light Package
5AC High Beam Assistent
5DF Cruise Control with brakefunction
601 TV function
609 Navigation Professional & Voice Control
610 Head-up Display
644 Bluetooth prep
672 6-cd loader
676 Hifi sound system
760 Hochglanz Shadow Line
761 Tinted side and rear windows
775 Anthrazit Headliner

Grtz,

B

Grtz,

congrats, sounds good.

couple questions:

no comfort seats ?
since you get the USB for an ipod, why the extra cost for a cd changer ?

Thx andy.

Well i actually doubt about getting comfort seats or not... But i like the side support you get from the sport seats. I actually always had sport seats.
And for the cd changer: like i already said, i'm not that fanatic with music. I like the radio and my cd's, that's why i don't have an ipod. So my cd's are in the trunk in the cd changer. And if i want to i can sell that further afterwards if i don't like that.

You get the same side support from the Comfort seats... and even more as you can decide how much "squeeze" you like to have.
