Adaptive Drive is much more than the adaptive M-sport suspension. I, like you have Adaptive Drive in my 5-series, we have active roll bars (ARS) as well as the adaptive damping. It is the ARS option that actually costs the big money, but is the part that allows us to corner much flatter and refines the ride, particularly over single bumps on the straight.
For a current 5-series, Variable Damping Control is £985; Adaptive Drive is £2,770 The other steering upgrade (sporty steering) is Integral Active Steering at £1,330, so makes the F30/1 Variable Sport Steering (VSS) quite a cheap option.
