Went a little bit nuts with the spec but oevrall I am very glad I did as I intend to keep this car for a while. Things I think are an absolute must are the auto bootlid, comfort access, comfort seats and the panoramic roof. The comfort seats in particular are very,very good....I had to go back into the dealer on Saturday and sat in an SD they had in the showroom with the Sports seats just to compare...best money I spent on the car.

I am also impressed by the sound quality of the Prof speakers. They seem to have done away with the Logic 7 branding (and functionality) but the sound quality is very good.

Only minor negative is that the mirrors don't seem to fold when you close the car as they did on my 535d and a couple of cars before that. Anyone know why they got rid of it ? I found it useful living in London. Might have something to do with comfort access as it could be difficult to integrate with that.

The car is bedding in nicely with the engine startening to loosen up and the suspension also improving..it was very crashy over speed bumps when I picked it up.

Nice color combo!

seems all the UK people are getting their SDs delivered at the moment. dont hear too many Aust getting theirs as yet.

Fredo - What tires do you have on the 214's? THey appear to be all seasons or winter. I have not found a run flat tire for my 214's in an all season.

congrats fredo, one question is the titanium grille standard on the SD then?

Congratulations!

looks great fredo

and yeah titanium is standard on 3.0sd

yes standard titanium grilles, upgraded brakes and what's more on the SD is that the style 214 20s are factory-orderable whereas they are not at all on a 3.0si.

I will check tonight but I would be surprised if they are. There was an option to spec them so presumably they do exist though?

Congratulations. Enjoy in good health.
