Would expect them to be here at the end of the month to coincide with the facelift saloon/estate which gets released 20th this month.

Thanks for your inputs guys. 335i/335d your spot on. Spoke to my dealer today and he says it won't be available until the end of October in the UK.

Love to get an M3. Just a bit on the pricey side for me.

Dougie.

Just noticed that according to BMW web site the new DCT box brings 0-62 mph time down to 5.4 secs (Getting near to the DXB now)

Had a drive in a new Carrera 2S today with the PDK box ie. equivalent to DCT. Very impressive set up, so smooth and such a quick gear change up and down the box. Has other features as well.

Worth considering when available on the 335i I would have thought.
