My New UK Order
Just placed my order today for a new F15 to replace my F25 20d
Not 100% set on the spec but it will be changeable for a while. Due for delivery week 43 ! F15 30d SE (258hp UK Spec) Sophistico Grey Xirallic Mocha Dakota Leather American Oak I wont list the full spec but plenty for me to play with ! At the moment I've left off the surround view (just have reverse camera), I have the surround view on my F25 and impressive as it is I don't really use it that much ..... would value any thoughts of added value on the F15 (anything the F25 doesn't do). Any thoughts on Adaptive xenon's V Adaptive LED ? I've ordered the latter. Would also value any thoughts (or pics) of the exterior/interior colour combo that I've gone with. Cheers

UKMS Congrats on your order.
I wouldn't be without the Winter Pack and Auxiliary Heating....a must especially now we are in June I'd also miss the HK and Connected Drive AND the Snap-in adaptor for the iPhone. Wondered why you aren't going for the M Sport....more bang for your buck IMO especially with Adaptive Suspension thrown in. |

..... Now I'm doubting my decision .... I think I'll do that .... I've got at least 2-3 weeks grace and my sales exec is used to me always making last minute changes on anything I order !

Would agree with the above comments - the M Sport is good value if you want the adaptive suspension, 19" staggered wheels and electrically adjustable seats. Some of the options drop in price with M Sport such as the wood trim (fineline pure is nice and to me taste looks better than oak), 20" wheels and seven-seats . About the options, I have quite a few - I would not be without the surround view and sunroof (especially if you have a black interior) and enhanced USB. Next priority would be the head-up display and the active cruise control. For the rest, I would give the LED lights lower priority given their cost (it is more asthetic - the indicators are cool mind you), park assist (fun but gimmicky), extended storage (rip-off)....

Interesting I'll double check.... ZNS is showing on my order as a £230 option. There were one or two minor variances in cost from the current price list which I was told are reflective of 2016MY price changes which worked both ways. For example extended storage 493 is £0 cost on my order but is £245 on the current price list

I had adaptive LED on my F10 and have xenon on my F15. imho the adaptive leds are very nice up close but like surround view not a priority.
If u listen to music at reasonably loud volume (50pc or higher) than HK is a must. extended bluetooth is a must in all cars (bmw should really make it standard). m sport is good value if those options look appealing as adding 2-3 of them down the road will cost as much as the whole set upfront.

Interestingly though, Extended Storage 493 shows on my order as £245 inc VAT before discount (order placed exactly a month ago) |

I've not specced it for this reason, and the fact that my wife and I have different phones (iPhone 5s and 6), with cases and the snap-in adaptors (or lack of) seem like an expensive pain in the @rse and waste of space. |

I'll have to change to Terra Dakota leather as Comfort seats are not available in Mocha Dakota ...... Has anyone currently got Terra with brushed aluminium and happy ?
