Most M135i are putting out 340bhp on rolling roads. I think there will be minor differences in times between a mapped 335d, standard v's standard M135 is definitely quicker.

10.9 on fastestlaps.com too
fastestlaps.com is the most inaccurate site ever on the internet.

I've never known a car that people don't claim make more power on the rollers.

There must be the same claim for every single car in existence that they have far more power.

The question was remapped 335d v standard M135i and the real deal is there is just hairs to split.

Personally I wouldn't ever consider a 335d. Having had a shot now it isn't what I'd expect and delivers nothing what a petrol equivalent does.

Still no slouch in headline figures though.
