xBMWx and Andy545 good to see that you guys are still alive and kicking in here!
Engine, that's not an option for me due to the fact that i'm registring it in Belgium.
Choosing the super efficient and clean bottom range diesel is almost a must there considering taxes and therefore resale value.
It's a 520dA

I'm moving from Denmark to the UK, so it would no longer be too far to join a "BeNeLux reunion meet" some time next year... and check out Wilbert's new toy

(I will also need to change my car for something more economical, but I think I'll take my time to decide...

Excellent taste ![Worthy](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/worthy.gif)
BMW is not being fair to us by offering those fugly 350M 18" wheels in the M-pack, or is it just me being too greedy by wanting those much better 351's
The wife acceptancy factor (WAF) is probably next to zero on this option, but hey

The option for today is: extra 12volt connections
Need them for the kids in the back to charge their ipods, dvd players etc.

Since yesterday's option was hardly worth mentioning, i'll name one of the gadgets:
speed limit info
With this system a camera under your rear view mirror recognizes speed the limits and displays them.
Well, a picture would explain it better... Couldn't find one though.

Probably will be quite loaded since you've got such a niche option as this as well?

Not worth the money, according to me.

The loaner I'm using is equipped with that, and if you are lucky it works about 50% of the time. True, up here in Scandinavia with the current hard winter it's probably a tough time being a speed limit identifier... but you expect more from a system that recognises a 100 km/h sign to just afterwards change its mind and show "70 km/h" on the display without any reason. ![Nono](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/nono.gif)

Given the fact that i get one ticket a month on average i'll get back to you within a year or so

In a recent ADAC test it was tested as the best among other systems.
