As to M-sport or Adaptive Drive, I do hope to try both in due time, but my dealer (knowing me and what I want from a car) reckons I'll need the Adaptive Drive package to use on roads I drive. I prefer a firmer suspension, but a softer drive on some of the highland roads, including some interesting surfaces where an M-sport suspension may just be one step too far. I'm hoping the Adaptive Drive is the best of both worlds, 'sport' when the roads permit, but a switch to a softer 'normal' ride on average roads. I understand from my Dealer Principal, that for motorway hauls the 'comfort' setting gives a really luxury cruise, as the 7-series does.

You might like the Racing Dynamics springs for Adaptive Drive. Lower the car, add just a bit of rake, stiffer, ..... comfort is closer to normal without, sport and sport+ firmer.
