Still no M135i xDrive for UK/RHD :(

So judging by yesterday's BMW Group Press releases, are we now sure that the UK will NOT be getting the AWD xDrive F2x 1ers?

UK release has no mention:

Yet Munich release does.

May well have jumped out of my 1M for one of those M135i xdrive cars. Quoted 0 to 100 km/h in a mere 4.7 seconds for auto box.

The only RHD cars with xDrive are the X series as far as I know, I think the F30 was developed to be able to have RHD and xDrive as well but I may be wrong. + the F20 was released earlier so it might not have been made with that in mind as well.

The F20 has been designed with xdrive versions on mind as well. There is plenty of info including technical data in the German BMW web site regarding the soon to be released xdrive versions including the M135i xdrive. I don't know about the market decision for UK.
