M135i - xDrive or not?

I plan to buy a M135i hatch. It will be my second car, after about two years in a 320dA Touring.

I will use it as my daily driver. I'm hesitating whether I would go for the xDrive or not. Living in Belgium we often have rainy weather, so the added grip will be welcome. I didn't really like the steering on a 3 series xDrive compared to the RWD though, but since the M135i has electric steering, I don't know if it will have such an impact.

I have a test drive planned with the RWD at the BMW centre in a week, but there is no xDrive version available for testing, so I won't be able to compare both. I don't see any reviews online of the xDrive version either, it seems only the RWD is tested.

Is there someone who compared both cars and is willing to elaborate on the difference? Any other thoughts?
