...I've recently sold my E61 M5 and now have a 2015 CP M5 which is EPIC!
It's got the following options on it which i need some help with. Mainly around if these need paid for as a new owner or if they transfer with the car. I'm totally confused by them at the moment so if anyone can point towards any help that would be great.

I suspect they may be live for the warranty period and after that need £ to keep ?

As far as I know, only Internet is a cost subscription annually, all the others are included as standard & are not cost options or subscription based. Internet is I think £95. It's included in the option price for year 1, then paid for annually, I paid it last year & my subscription is now due again but i'll not be bothering again as I don't think I've ever used it & don't think it impacts any other services.

Really, RTTI requires Internet subscription?

Internet is a cost option though so does that mean any cars not spec'd with it don't get RTTI?

All cars have the internet connection, you don't have to have the Internet subscription though, that's only needed to use the browser.

For a new car RTTI is included for 3 years, after that you have to pay an annual subscription. At least that's what I'm lead to believe! On my Connected Drive account screen my RTTI subscription is set to expire at around the 3rd anniversary of the car being first registered.

Phew, didn't want to lose RTTI or other Connected Drive features, just never used the browser so can't see the point of paying another £95 for it.
