Cheers Allan I am pretty sure that the 925 Shipping Protection Package is a rustproofing coating and other protection (eg to the doors/bonnet and wheels) applied during the shipping of its car prior to delivery to the first owner. 807 Japan Version will be the package to make the car compliant to the Japanese market. Eg Smaller numberplate surround, Japanese spec stereo etc. 441 Smoker Package is the cigarette lighters and ashtrays Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jochen 4 Report post Posted July 26, 2008 (edited) Easy, most are self explanatory: 925 Shipping protection package Protection during shipping from factory to destination country. Removed once delivered. Ever seen a new car on a transporter? It has paint protection sprayed on, foam buffers on the bumpers and door sills, protection against stone chips on a transporter, covers on the seats etc to keep it clean and new looking during shipping. 823 Hot climate version A package that includes stronger AC and possibly no heater. Some cars also have larger radiators and increased engine cooling capacity for hot climates 807 Japan version The japanese version of the BMW. Radio is different, emission control and gearbox ratios can also be different. Fitted gearbox may be different. Stickers on the car can be in Japanese. Handbook can be Japanese. Numberplate holders are different to match japanese number plate sizes 715 M aerodynamic package The aerodynamic package such as body kit, spoiler etc 705 M sport suspension II The suspension package with generally stiffer spings, stiffer anti-sway bars, and possibly lowered slightly. 441 Smoker package Ashtrays and cigarette lighter fitted. 204 Drive version export Export version of the BMW, intended for non-German countries. Series options 853 Language version English. All documentation and stickers supplied in English. Even though it is a Japanese car, you can still specify the preferred language Edited July 26, 2008 by jochen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yuen 16 Report post Posted July 26, 2008 Just curious - regarding 'M Sport Suspension II'... was there a 'M Sport Suspension I' on the E39? Anyone know what the difference is, if so? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
