I'd definitely tick the 'Exterior trim,high gloss shadowline' box, it would look the biz!

Nice colour VR, and you don't see many around

I like the colour but it will look quite dull and ordinary when it is dirty - e.g. on a dry day after a couple of rainy days.

It will look it's best when clean and polished and on a bright day so, get a good wax on it so that it will still gleam after you wash it.

Cream beige interior of course and don't forget the walnut!

I have my 320D ED in vermillion red and Alan above is 100% right. When it's dirty or the weather is overcast/dull, the colour is poor. Having said that, it's the same for most colours. I wouldn't pick it again.
