No doubt it's good but I know of a fair few who have got shot of them sharpish for various reasons, one being that "boring" thing you mention. Plus build quality issues.
I notice Top Gear is finally admitting it has a few flaws too; reluctant DSG box, rattles and shakes, etc. Nothing against competition to the M135i; it's very healthy. But when the media just seem to be plain wrong, it's irritating.
That review seems fair and balanced for once.
Still love ours and it still makes me grin two years after it arrived. It's a keeper.
