Please explain.

I have NOT heard about DCT for the 55xi.
But, I will NOT buy a new car without DCT,

The 520d SE is the big surprise.

The new one has Professional radio as standard (E60 is business) - saving of £295

F10 has automatic air con, E60 was a £595 extra.

F10 has leather which was £1,280 on the E60

F10 has bluetooth which was £535 on the E60.

List price has gone up a few hundred pounds but includes £2,700 of kit - all of it, stuff most of us would specify anyway! Result.

DCT and a lot of torque (which FI engines produce) don't go hand in hand.

If you'd like further explanation see this link.

Is it possible? Yep. Cost effective? Nope.
