I finally have 1

j1gzca · 07-22-2010, 06:13 AM

Ordered the car in May, picked it up 2 weeks ago and the odometer just turned 1200 miles today.

AW/Terra
DCT
M-Sport
Heated Seats

First order of business was to change the front grills.

I didn't even think to remove that Altoids tin in the background.

awesome…..
didn’t know the 1 series was already equipped with this new auto gear box like the older brothers (the joystick) ... is this standard for the 135i even from 2007 or just these last ones have the new gearbox/ joystick?

135IS · 07-22-2010, 06:20 AM

It's for DCT equipped cars.

DCT is doppelkupplungsgetriebe in original, double clutches working in the auto transmission. makes shifting quick. if you don't know it, don't worry about it much.
And Gratz much to the OP. Liked the pics.

KingOfJericho · 07-22-2010, 08:25 AM

OP, where in CT are you?

SupremePower3335 · 07-22-2010, 08:26 AM

Congrats and beautiful pic's

! I have AW with CR, I would have preferred Terra but the CR is still nice!

OK clear now….
of course I know double clutches, I drove a 530d – F10 last month with this new clutch…
I believe in Europe this clutch is only available in the 5 Series and above ….. In Portugal we don’t see many gasoline cars…we are the kings of diesel …lol…

Mine E81 120d still as the “old” but reliability….

Thanks. I had a hard time deciding between Terra and CR. I could have gone either way.

Also, you need to post in the AW thread.

I'll take some pics of the interior when I get a chance today.

Nope... you´ve got just a "normal" Automatic Transmission.... DKG is (in the One Series) just available for the 135i 2010 Modell

Metralha · 07-23-2010, 04:53 AM

Notted...thanks matte...
I like mine "normal" transmission ....Although wouldn’t mind to have the DKG

cvandenhaute · 07-23-2010, 05:58 AM

Picked up my 128i sport yesterday with that color combo
