At the risk of confusing things and myself futher..I like the look of the black 20" wheels and want a comfortable ride as our roads in the West Country are not great. I don't however want the car wallowing about. Is it a sensible option to go for the 20" and Adaptive Suspension Comfort package on the SE Spec? Much as I like the M Sport I have to have the side steps for my wife AND I don't like the thought of a choppy ride which the M Sport is bound to give. Any suggestions or compromises welcome. Thanks.
