Default Passion BMW what antifreeze

So, after getting my bmw e60 stolen I have bought my self an e61 525d msport,
I have decided to change the two thermostats and do the swirl flaps as well as oil and filter, my question is what antifreeze do I need? I have a code for euro car parts so ideally from there as it's local

Cheers

i got mine from local motor factors, they looked it up and gave me the correct stuff. give euro car parts the reg no. and they'll get the correct stuff.
