You are right, it was not an option until MY11 (Oct 2010), it is now.

Auto all the way! Wife didn't want it but changed her mind after test drive. My E61 is auto so I didn't want a manual x1. I had a manual on loan during a service and kept stalling it! I'm getting old and am confused to easily.......... The rapid acceleration in sport mode is so quick and smooth!

More autos than manuals so far, I am quite surprised by that.

My xd23 is auto. The modern auto gearbox is pretty efficient now.
I don't think I will go back to manual in the future.
