Not sure where I read it but I recall the MSport sitting ever so slightly lower...
10-15mm maybe. It isn't much.

You cant really "delete" MSport suspension without first adding the MSport package...

You can't add MSport package and then delete the suspension portion only...Its all or nothing

That's a US only issue. ROW can do all sorts of things with options we can't.

Like buy diesels......

In the UK we have four distinct models - SE, Sport, X-Line and M Sport. You can 'delete' the sport suspension on the M Sport but there is nothing in the brochure about ride height as far as I can see.

And get a proper number of pedals. Pity about being on the wrong side of the car though.

I didn't want to upset you guys too much by mentioning the number of pedals....
Not too sure about being on the wrong side - it's the rest of the world that's wrong

It already has 7 inches clearance, so maybe you prefer a real SUV for off road.

My MSport feels really good on the road. Sure, some bumps in road can feel firm, but the day will come when I get some Michelin PSS non RFT's.

I bought X1 s28i with M Sport and Mineral white the only add-ons, and still miss nothing else. I don't drive much at night, but the stock lighting works fine for me.
