Funnily enough some of the e60's had a problem where the boot would unlock and open itself while the vehicle was parked up ... not very secure.

At least with the e90 the boot is not visibly open if it is accidently unlocked.

BTW this reminds me of a major grumble about the e90.

In the e46 the door open warning light illuminated when the vehicle was parked.

In the damn e90 you actually have to start driving BEFORE it tells you the boot or a door is ajar.

This is so annoying and the opposite of 'progress'.

If I even get my hands on the BMW man who changed this I'd give him a right old slap.
