Upon looking at the TI Companion I came to the conclusion that mine must be an active package... I left out the following features in my last post:

15" alloy wheels, leather steering wheel and shift knob, on-board computer, remote keyless entry system and alarm, one-touch windows

But the active still doesn't explain the heated seats... it's so confusing

I am in the Uk and the specs maybe different to the US.Dont think mine is a sport I think it is a 318Ti with sport package.Its a 97 or 98 not sure .Colour is Montreal Blue

Mtec sports seats
Mtec suspension
Sports steering wheel
AC & elec sunroof
Body coloured bumpers & skirts
Foglights
Centre armrest
Rear headrests
Wheels are alloys and original BMW fitment for year,hard to describe not 5 spoke but rather like minilites.
Checked all this with BMW who advised all of these as optional extra`s.

Red face I've got a Club Sport...

...I think.

Mtec wheel & gearstick (plus the colour coded bumpers & skirts), 16" BMW Style 42 alloys, ABS, aircon, cd-changer, ASC. And it's Sienna Red.

Bzzzzz. Not in Sienna Red. Club Sports are only Jet Black or Bright Red.

Oh wait, I stand corrected, I thought we were talking US. I don't believe the UK had a Club Sport. They did have some other models that the US did not have.

I think the rear headrests mean it's more likely to be a 98 with the rear headrests... Also, I fail to see the distinction you are trying to make between Sport/Sport Package, it's the same thing.

That's an Active.

well shut the hell up! I just love it to pieces. I want to get fog lights and a spoiler but other than that, I really just like it the way that it is.

An Active is a step up from the base model.
Actives had cruise, alarm and your wheels standard.
The base had steel wheels with hubcaps.

Ooh yeah I forgot it has the alarm and keyless entry. I have had it for 3 years, and it only had one owner before me, and I guess he was an older man. I only know that because it still gets serviced at the original BMW dealership where it was bought new. But it's such a great car!

If your car is 96-99 and has the wide M-Technic moulding on the side, it is most likely a Sport. Foglights were standard but cruise was optional. The Sport had 5 spoke wheels though.

I had a California Roof until I wrecked it.
I miss it. Someday I'll pick up another one.
