You appear to have posted pretty much the whole options list.....that'll cost you!

The Media Pack and dynamic Pack will help with your re-sale value down the line. Most of the other options will depreciate quite badly. Watch when adding 4UB (3rd row) and 233 (increased tow capacity), as the UK options list suggests that your third row is reduced to a single person - at which point you have to ask the question why would you add it?

Reversing camera has been quite problematic with some owners so I would do some more research on that one. Suggest driving a car with it to see if it works for you.

Active Steering - I would suggest driving a car with it if you have not tried it yet - some people love it others hate it.

Other than that it is up to you - if you take all that then you will have a pretty tooled-up X5.

Thanks StumpyPete,

I had a look at the options list and could not find a reference to suggest that the third row of seats is reduced to one person, can you provide me with a link so I can confirm with the dealer ?

Many Thanks
Tezza

Agree with all Stumpy said but I would add in my opinion the Active Ventilation option isnt worth it for the UK.

Plus I was irritated by the fan noises coming from under the seat. Then theres all the crap that gets in there through the perforations not sure how well it would hold up, as I say only my opinion.

The Rear DVD isnt that great when your driving if you like your arm rest, the kids were arguing over which angle it should face and the screens not that big for a central single monitor. I would rather spend the money on an after market kit with 2 independent screens. IMO

Good luck.

You've listed a lot of standard equipment on your list e.g. auto box. I would suggest that you spend some time with the online car configurator and see what works for you. Some options clash, some don't. Then I guess it's down to your budget and lifestyle.
