The rear bulkhead is fixed in the 7, if you need to fold the seats you need the tourer or someone Who took the option for a split seat on the 5 saloon.

Spoke to one dealer about 40 minutes away. Me: hi I'm calling about the 7 series, if you still have it?
Salesman: you can come and view it, it's in our showroom, but you can't drive it.
Me: right ok, I won't bother then as I need to drive it to drive it!?
Salesman: right ok thanks
Me: cheers bye

Prick.

Like its a pricey motor, not.
