Anyone driven both manual and the DCT?

A few used (manual) examples are coming onto the market now for mid to late 40's... but with the recent DCT gearbox now available it will mean buying new pushing the price up to late 50's... (once the options are added)

Is it worth it?

(is the manual the same as in the 335i?)

Thanks
Lee

Thanks for your opinions, although im not able to test drive the car for about 4 weeks i think i will appreciate the added technology that the DCT gives BUT seeing that there are a few Jerez Black Saloons with Red leather going for £45,995 (2000mls) I would have to pay around a £12,000 premium for the DCT gearbox...

which would be bonkers i think!

Thanks
