So I registered on Topix to see what my car came with out of the factory. Can I assume the items marked as LESS XXXX means they were not added (or were removed from standard) (sorry for the long list)

Was just wondering if I had a DVD player, TPMS and Blind Spot Monitoring... I guess not

I have the DVD player and have DVD PLAYER REGION 2 (PAL) listed on mine.

For TPMS - this is a completely wild stab in the dark and am probably wrong but it could be 433.92MHZ DR LK FREQ (NORMAL) since the workshop manual says the following:

Quote:

The tyre sensors measure the air pressure and temperature in the tyres and transmit the readings in radio signals at a frequency of 433 MHz

As for blind spot monitoring, I have BLIND SPOT MONITORING SYSTEM on my list. This one's the easiest to spot since you'd have little orange symbols lighting up in your wing mirrors all the time

I would have thought rear seat recliner would have been the easiest thing to spot

I suspect you're right though - LESS means it was not installed.
