520d ordered

Hi all,

After much consideration I decided to bite the bullet and ordered on Friday:

520d M Sport
Sports Auto
Space Grey
Black Dakota
Hex dash surround
USB
Audio interface for iPhone
Heated seats
19" m sport alloys
Loudspeaker upgrade

One thing I was unsure of was whether to order the matt aluminium trim instead of shadow line?
Any opinions?


Extras missing that I might like are ambient lighting and climate glass but I had to draw the line somewhere.

I am trading my fully loaded X5 '07 7 seater w dynamic pack, good car but the tax was killing me. I am also doing a few country runs and although comfortable the x was a brute.

Scheduled delivery for early march.

I think space grey looks better with chromeline (not available for M Sport I think) or the matt aluminium personally - I think the shadowline looks good only on black and white cars, but that's just my opinion.

As the car looks like it will have been built after week 2, you shouldn't have to pay for USB and heated seats as they became standard this year - well they did for the UK and US so I assume for Eire too.
