More importantly, will the xDrive M135i make it to UK in RHD? How about 3er xDrive RHD this time around too?

Disappointed with the new about the M550xd not being UK RHD.

There is still news to come regarding BMW @ Geneva. But mainly, I suppose it can be classified as an all M. Show.

I do not know what the UK will get , I do know that the antics of BMW 1er drivers in the winter of last year which garnered much You Tube hilarity was maybe the catalyst to finally bring AWD to the UK Market.

Yes , sadly the UK will miss out on the optimum 5er (M5 excluded).

My dealer says it will be available in June 2012 and should be available to spec and order from around March. It won't be able in all engines there will definitely be a 320xd but petrol engines have yet to be confirmed. There may or may not be a 320xi. It will available in the same trim levels as the sDrive versions (i.e. Sport, Modern etc.).

It follows if the RHD xDrive 3 series is successful in the UK, then it follows that they will introduce it on other models such as the 1 series.

Thx!
