However, remaps and tuning boxes are readily available for those who want more power, even more than 380nM that this updated version brings.

Sahil,

I am sure you could source an ECU/maps from the UK/Continental Europe; if you could, then this would be incredible news

Are you sure that the only change is the software? are all the features the same? If so, then this is great news for people who are in the used car market, buy a 525 for a lot less and mod it to a 530 !!

Cheers
