I can't think of a single reason why. |
Also gotta remember, OP drives a 340i with a stick, he's use to a manual handbrake every time he parks and gets in to drive. A manual handbrake just feels more assuring and in a sense engaging than a electronic parking brake which can sometimes be hard to get used to. |
All F30 have manual hand brakes even the auto ones |
Yes, but how many people with automatic transmissions use their hand/e-brakes? I was just saying as a manual transmission owner myself, we use a handbrake numerous times a day, so changing to an e-brake can feel weird. |
I can vouch for that having changed from a manual M235 to an M340. Still not quite used to it, and am nearly 6 months into ownership. But I drove manuals for 30 years before the M340, so a handbrake just feels more reassuring.
