The M-sport interior is the coolest there is. Spending money on Dakota leather would be a waste, and imo not as good looking as this....

cheers mate the only reason you'd go for the leather is if you had young kids

Servotronic problems ??? normal or sport version ?

I order a 125d + confort pack + M pack, will it bring front arm rest ?? it would be nice to cover the ipod.

Nice pics

and yes, you get the front arm rest- and its adjustable

Followed you over from your e90post farewell thread. Congratulations and enjoy, she's a beauty!

I only wish we could see them stateside. Morbid obesity as a nationwide epidemic sure has its drawbacks!

Nice car! Congratulations.

One question: Does the F20 have an oil temperature gauge? If not on the dashboard, maybe in iDrive?
