I know the pros and cons of VDC have been discussed before, but for anyone considering this option I can add my experience.
I owned an F25 X3 xdrive 20D SE with standard suspension and found the ride to be harsh on sections of our badly maintained roads.
I have now taken delivery of a replacement of the same model, fitted with VDC. The transformation is incredible. On rough roads the ride is so much smoother. Even when selecting Sport Mode the ride is more controlled than on the standard model. The whole suspension set up is much more refined. At £940 it is money well spent. On a car costing around £40,000 with extras, it's less that 2.5% of the value, but makes a good car great, because it also includes the Performance Control.
Another extra I added was the Variable Sport Steering. This makes the steering so much crisper and keeping the car on course is considerably easier, allowing you to sit back and relax.
I also changed from the standard seats to the Sport Seats. These are much more comfortable, due to the greater range of adjustments.
I hope these observations may be helpful to others.
