Rear seats - do they fold?
I have an F10 520d M Sport saloon on order. This is a UK spec car.
I did not go for the split folding rear seats option. I believe that there is a through load as standard, which is a hatch style opening behind the rear arm rest. Will I be able to lower the rear seats as a block of all three seats? So to open the boot into the rear passenger area, in a non-split way? Or do the rear seats simply not fold down at all? Thanks. |

They do not fold. Split folding rear seats is a great option.

Okay, thanks for clarifying this. It is a bit annoying, since most other vendors - my current Audi included - have this as standard.
Not a massive annoyance, since I mostly don't have to carry anything bigger than will fit in the boot. I suppose when things like all leather seats are standard, it's probably unfair to bemoan the "option" charging for other things that one might expect to be standard. One man's perception of a standard item, might be seen as another man's perception of "option". Anyway, thanks again for the clarity. |

There are a large number of vehicles in which the folding rear seat is not even an option. Since it was listed as an option, one should not assume it is available for free. Anyway, it is described clearly on the website.

I'm assuming you are referencing the BMW web site. I'm not aware of a description on the BMW UK web site that references the ability or not, to fold all three of the rear seats. Hence my posting here, in order to clarify my query. I was ably assisted in this clarification earlier today. If you have appropiate citation from the BMW UK web site, I'll very happily stand corrected. Cheers. |
