In your opinion is there a down side to getting an active which has a load of options added to it?

I viewed loads before actually buying mine in February.
I had a few basic wants and don't wants and stuck to it.
I didn't want an Active because of the interior ( leather was a must for me ) and I wasn't prepared to buy a Black one as it's a colour that I don't like .
In addition I didn't want a light leather as the drivers seat always looked very tired (which is strange because the oak leather in my S60 was in lovely condition ) so it had to be black leather.
I wanted a facelift model so that I got the uprated angle gear which seems to be less bother .
Gearbox wise I was prepared to take a manual or geartronic but other than that I wasn't bothered about sat nav or DVD players .
As it turns out I bought a 2007 XC90 D5 Geartronic in Willow Green ( Love it ) with Black leather.
