I need to get out of the 335i as it knocking on 100k.

I wanted something different but knew I'd miss the engine so the m135i came along at the right time.

The biggest decision I need to make us manual v auto. My 335i was FBO manual and I love the torque through the long gears and feeling in complete control.

Test drove the 8 speed auto and whilst it was a great auto I just felt it took some of the experience away.

Also the car just seemed to be constantly gong though gears which all seemed a little frantic when pushing on.

What trans did you opt for? I'm trying to arrange a test drive of a manual so I'll guess I'll now soon enough!!
I went for the auto. Manual wasn't bad.But I've never really been a fan of BMW manuals.
