Nice.

Though evidently on the X5 version of the 50d they have saved not only on front fogs but also on the power bulge bonnet!

My front bumper is not off an X6M either; appears to be a hybrid as the X6M front splitter will not fit (according to RealOEM).

On collection I want to double check all the options I paid for are present. All are obvious to see other than the adaptive headlights.
Is there a way I can easily tell while at the dealer if fitted or not?
Thanks

If it's LED Adaptive headlights then easy peasy - it says 'BMW Adaptive LED' on the lenses :-)

On the assumption they are the same as my old 535D, if you turn the wheel they still move when the car is parked.

They look like normal projector HIDs?  LEDs are just a horizontal bar with no projector aren't they?  At least the only one I've seen looked like that - on an X6 though.

If you face the wall, switch on headlights and steer left-right, you should see lights following steering ....

Well I picked it up earlier today. Miserable day for it, but must say I'm really pleased with it so far. Not really had a chance to put it through its paces yet.
Will post pics as soon as it has stopped raining.
Really chuffed to see that it can display texts sent to my iPhone on the multimedia display-a trick my Audi never managed!

Great news and 'Health to Enjoy',  another member getting a smashing early Christmas present.  Looking forward to seeing the photos.  Did the handover go well?  Are you happy all features you requested are on the car?

That's good to see.  I have to admit that too date I've never had a very long handover, but then I was happy to get in and get going.  It's also obvious that I know more about the car than the salesmen!  ::)
