I am picking up my 2008 335 conv on Saturday and cant wait, had a good test drive and thought it was a fantastic car, the only down side is my TVR Chim is up for sale as I want the garage for this so it has to go, I posted on here before about the rusty wheel hubs, the dealer is going to give them a good clean but I think I am going to go down the smoothrite way do you need a primer on these before painting ?, didnt realise they dont come with a jack as they have run flats so need to invest in one from Halfords, will keep you posted of developments.

Loving my 335 Msp conv...did you go for the M sport and auto/manual? Not even attempted risking driving it last 2 days as cant imagine 300+bhp auto will be too handy in this weather, and living on a hill!

Yes had the Mspt auto, pick it up on Saturday, 13 months old and 4500 miles, the only thing I think is a let down on all of them are the rusty wheel hubs which I will sort myself after I pick the car up.
I have been reading the manual about the sat nav etc I think it will be easier to have a play with it instead, I just hope that the snow will have gone by thenwoohoo

Our 335d suffered from the same problem with the rusty wheel hubs. We took it back to Sytner in Nottingham and the primed them FOC.

Will be doing the same with my 135i which is suffering the same problem.
