Is spec not just going to be the same as the 2 wheel drive models? My dealer reckoned a premium of £1200 - £1500 for the xdrive above the 2 wheel drive models.

Is xdrive definitely going to be available on the 330d? I had recently heard 320d was going to get but not seen anything recently for 330d (though saw something posted in one of the car magazines I think some months ago). When i asked my dealer in November they just referred to the 320i

I will be disappointed if the 330d does not get the Xdrive. I understand it is quoted at "selected diesel models" so I assumed it would be the 320d and 330d. Hopefully the information be available within the next week or so. I have waited 4 months so 2 weeks is fine. And yes the expected price difference is somewhere about £1500. |

The 330d is a new engine unlike the others. So it will come, but not just yet. I'll give it 3 months for LHD and 6 months for RHD.

I too am waiting for the F31 330d M Sport xDrive to become available. It is so frustrating to be left to wait and wait and wait without knowing when if at all this model might be released. The question will be if it doesn't get released in the Spring this year, do I just get the RWD version or possibly wait another 6 months or more for the xDrive model?

It sounds as if the 330d is some bit away if at all????? The UK BMW web page has been updated indicating the model availability will be updated on 17 January 2013. |

My local dealer contacted me today to tell me that the F31 330d xDrive will go into production in week 10 (the start of March 2013) the M Sport price is £39,545, VED band F (142g/km).
So I hope to be putting in my order next month. |

No he didn't, but if you compare the difference between the petrol xdrives and the non xdrive with the same engine. You would expect a similar drop it only seems to be a few mpg. Having checked combined drops by around 5mpg Last edited by Captain Cow Pat; 01-14-2013 at 01:25 PM.. Reason: update of info |

the F30 seems a fair bit better on official figures than F10 hence I'm guessing CO2 on F30 xdrive will be similar to F10 2wd. For some reason I am unacquainted with, F20 no better than F30 on CO2 with the same engines |
