However, great job on BMW for straightening up the design of the 1/2 series. Now the car looks quite good.


I understood the zf8hp could support multiple downshifts, 8-2nd etc so it may be the mode the driver has it in or the speed at which he is changing. You should be able to blip it down 4 gears at a time etc iirc
