Sounds a good spec, those comfort seats are a desirable and quite rare option due to the high cost from what I hear ,Welcome  :)

Looks good in white , have the mudflaps saved the rear arch leading edge from the usual gravel rash ? , as mine being black and no mudflaps is peppered with white chips on the rear plastic arch and the end of the sill cover too. Think I will get the 2 rear arches painted then fit clear vinyl over the top but might just put some carbon look vinyl on the sill end .

No they haven’t. Have stone chips on rear plastic arches. One side looks as if it needs painting.
Let me know how much it costs to have them repainted as I’m thinking of doing that. As it spoils the look of the car when you get up close.
The paintwork is damaged near front of rear arch when you zoom in to photo you can see black stain.
I’m reassured you mention it as I thought the dealer had scuffed it a few days ago. It does look like a rash now you mention it.

Just kidding, and given that BMW owners own the road, we can park where we like... :P

I'm sure I read somewhere that bmw covered the cost of paint repair to the arches, although it may have been on Outpost (the american site and very good to).
