Wecome on board!

Looks like a fine choice of options and colour combo.
What are 243 style wheels? Standard with the 525d?

Thanks. The 243 wheels are the ?80 upgrade on standard.

See http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=35606

though I just realised that its the 244 wheels I have ordered, not the 243 doh!

Congratulations. BTW, did you have a chance of testing it, the 'new' 525d with the LCI auto box ? I ask this because I'm considering this model as my next buy later this year...

No, no test on the LCI, they dont have any in yet. I tested a 520D Auto (M Sport) which was great
