My Ride: My ex-ride: EU '08 LCI 520dA. Space Grey, Sport Seats in Black Leather/Fabric Anthracite, Sport Steering Wheel, A/C with Extended Features, Hi-Fi Speakers, Cup Holders, Cruise with Braking function, Folding Rear Seats, Xenons, Park Distance Control.

I'm sure that the 525d will be one of the best choices for the facelifted E60!

Some thaughts on your extras:

Go for Comfort Seats instead of the Sport Seats.
So much good has been told about the Comfort Seats on this Forum!!

Manual transmission? Why in the world??

No Active Steering?

Not even Hi-Fi speakers? Do you listen to music at all?

I think the advanced climate control is standard on the facelift.
At least in GB it will be.

Totally agree with Ricracing - Comfort seats are a well invested option!

Tried all three seats in the showroom (std/comfort/sport) and sport was imo the best.
Auto box: well not used to it, so not missing it.
Ricracing: climate comfort is sadly an option.
CA pushing on a knob to enter and putting the key in the dash isn't really onconfortable, is it?
It has still prof radio, so are the speakers equal to the standard stereo?

Hey Wowe: your car in Sweden isn't really a cheap bargain.

Steff99, whats then the base price of an 525d E61., Here it is ? 59.200 before price increase (which is acc,. to the dealer about 2%)

In Holland we are granted with 19% VAT on base price +45,2% luxury tax + ? 1000 extra diesel tax for polluting?? vehicles.

I though that everything was so expensive in Sweden or is it just the beer and other booze.

My Ride: e39 525i Touring, will order e61 as soon as I can decide on engine and options...

Base price is 386 000 SEK, about 40 000 EUR. Apart from beer and booze, Sweden is actually quite cheap today.

It's getting time to visit Sweden and unleash the car. How about' fines for speeding. I heard somewhere
that these can be horrible. or is that only in Finland? (income variable fines).

After all: where do you live?

Oh and by the way: I saw in your gallery the pict. Gota Sten, it's my wallpaper.
Dom't feel flattered, as soon I get my E61 I will replace it.

Greets from Holland.
