Welcome along.
It's not just a silver X5, it does at least have the comfort seats, and they are sooooo comfy. Good choice.

Oh and by the way, a remap will save you money :))

Mucho better.  Had them in mine too.  Got the newer version on the X6 and they're even better.  If like me you are of the er....'larger' persuasion then Sport Seats can be a bit uncomfy on very long journeys.

Fitting TV screens can be a bit of a challenge though....or so rumour has it.  Though there ways of doing it.
