I was torn on the visibility pack. I could have got it for only about £150 on top of the xenons and the folding mirrors. The reasons that I didn't were

1. I don't trust BMW to know when to dip my headlights - I don't want to be blinding someone coming the other way and for them to drive into me. This also won't work for pedestrians and cyclists. I would have to see this technology working well before I used it. Perhaps someone has it and can provide some feedback.

2. I can't think of any occasion in 15 years of driving when I have thought I wish i had lights that illuminated the road to the left or right when I turn the wheel. I've seen them on VW Golfs and I'm not convinced.

Despite both of the reasons if I had included the Visibility Pack I could well be raving about them both now!
