Hi All,
Just thought I'd post up a couple of pics of our new 5 series we picked up today.
We've only had about 20 minutes in the car as we've both had to work today
But we are still wearing insanely huge grins on our faces. The car is beautiful and we feel very lucky to be the proud owners of it!
Looks like we got the old style comfort seats too which Im pleased about (until someone tells me the new ones are better!), oh and the active seat backrests are awesome, we were extatic about them griping us in the seat when cornering!
Anyway, here's a couple of quick snaps, I'll take some more when I get more time later, if anyone wants pics of anything specific then let me know.
Spec is listed below...
535d M-Sport LCI, Carbon Black, Black Dakota Leather, Black Trim High Gloss, High Gloss Shadow Line, Anthracite Headlining.
Sports Auto Transmission
Visibility Package (Xenon Headlights, Adaptive Headlights, Headlamp Washer)
Media Package (Nav Professional, BMW Assist, Voice Control, Bluetooth, 6 CD Changer)
Extended Interior Light Package
19" 172 Wheels (with Space Saver Spare)
Comfort Seats Electric
Active Seat Backrest Adjustment
ISOFIX Child Seat System
Active Cruise Control - Stop & Go Function
Heads Up Display
Hi Fi Logic 7
USB / Ipod Interface
Auto Dim Int / Ext Folding Mirrors
Through Load System
High Beam Assistant
M Rear Spoiler
No Model Inscription

Superb 
I SOOOO want my new one, but as I've said before, nothing is like getting your first brand new car, or first E60, so you must absolutely thrilled. Looks fantastic. The only thing I'm going to say, because mine is still over 5 weeks away, is that as soon as mine arrives the first thing I will post is HOW MUCH BETTER the new comfort seats are than the old ones !!!
