Speed Limit Indicator SLI

I'm thinking of getting this activated. I don't remember seeing it as an option in the UK. Does it come with one of the option packs ?

It comes as part of Driver Assistance and/or Active Cruise Control.

Simon at Bavarian Coding does it with genuine FSC code from BMW for about £250-£300

Thanks for the recommendation Teaston.
Just picked up a stock car (bargain!) off Tony.
Had assumed SLI was included in Pro Nav as it doesn't seem to appear in UK price list or on the UK configurator on any of the options (even the ones you've listed).
Simon's price is about the same as I paid from factory for it on my M135i, plus he's doing a doorstep service. Win.

Excellent service.

I contacted Simon yesterday, he ordered the FSC code straight away after taking a deposit..
Today he came round and activated it ! He also came out for a full function test afterwards. £280

Be careful though, now this is activated every time you go over the speed limit and its indicated on your dash/hud a message is sent up to the BMW Connected platform and immediately forwarded to the local constabulary, this info contains your veh reg, current GPS location, direction heading along with all speed related data..

Is it possible to turn the speed indicator off? Not the red line that shows up when you go over, but the actual speed sign on the dash and HUD.

Just to add a further voice to saying Simon / Bavarian was brilliant. Amazed how quickly he sorted it and he also gave me a wee look at the Alpina displays (have stick with OEM though).
