I was an early skeptic, but I now confess through repeated use (especially in Palm Springs in the summer), they work wonderfully and YES I would definitely want them on my next car!

That's a shame having trouble with the car all that time almost since day one. I remembered I got my LCI E61 around the same time as you did, also from Förenade Bil? Nice for you to get a new, are you getting a good deal on the new one, I guess so, otherwise you wouldn't get another E61. The new iDrive is a huge improvement over the old one, I played with one the other day. Will it be another 530i?
Also, I'll tell my friends to keep away from that gray E61 at Förenade...

As I lack imagination I've opted for a 530i again...
Some people just never learn! Seriously, I've discussed the matter with She Who Must Be Obeyed and it came out that we really need two station cars (I wouldn't mind a Z4!) so it's an E61 again. If I would order a F11 I would probably get that in November and that's just too late.
And yeah, I'm looking forward to play with the new iDrive and the much improved SatNav

I have them in my car. They are great in the summer. Living in CO it can get really hot in the summer.
Once you have turned them on, wait about 30 seconds and feel the cool air all around.
Highly recommended
