    we are going to acquire through contract hire, a new A4, either in 120 or 143 guise.

    What options are essential for a typical BDM? We don't want to spend a fortune, but what kit is ideal in terms of getting balance for value for money and usefulness and making the BDM feel like he is valued (rather than putting him in a sparse standard car)?

    i think a standard 2.0TDI 143 now has a free upgrade to SE Exec so you should be ok with a pretty standard car

    Add the technology pack and you are pretty much all singing and dancing

    why not ask the BDM?? to choose the best package normally works well and will almost certainly make him feel valued.

    I'm guessing that it's their business development manager.

    Give him a list of options to choose from and a max spend, then i will make him feel like its more 'his' car. CArs are what makes most salesmen tick

    Boring Driving Man? Never heard of a BDM.

    I would suggest the phone and B&O stereo depending on how much time this "BDM" is on the road. Allowing him to pick the colour might go a long way to happiness. Nothing worse than having a car parked out side your house in a colour you do not like.

    Does he have a family? Perhaps some family items like blinds, rear airbags etc might make him happy?

    Lighting pack and Hill Hold assist would be good.

    The lighting pack is cheap and has a nice feel good factor ... but only at night

    Hill Hold assist should be standard and for £45 it takes out a blank switch and adds some cheap functionality.
