I don't smoke (except for, occasionally, the tires
) and don't allow anyone to smoke inside my car, but ensure always getting the
"Smoker's Package" in all my cars (for BMW it's option code
441). Reason: getting that extra 12V socket.
Guess what I use it for in, for example, my 1M ?
On at least the EURO-spec 1M you could also get a
third 12V-socket, more particularly inside the luggage compartment. It was part of the optional "Storage Package" (option code
493) which included:
- 12V socket inside the luggage compartment
- luggage nets on the back of the fronts seats
- two cup holders in the center armrest between the rear seats
- cargo net on the right hand side of the luggage compartment
- two lashing eyes
- two tension straps on the luggage compartment floor
On at least the EURO-spec M2, the "Storage Package" (option code
493) is standard. But beware: it does no longer include the 12V-socket inside the luggage compartment - that's a stand-alone option (option code
575).
My advice: you won't regret ticking the option boxes
441 and
575. It will get you three 12V-sockets (one inside the ashtray, one under the front armrest and one inside the luggage compartment). As a matter of fact, my daughter likes to recharge her electronic devices too when sitting in her back seat while my wife and I like to have "our" two 12V-sockets in the front to feed/recharge our electronic stuff.
