Other than that I have zero complaints, especially since moving from a 18i to a 20d. What is much better in the F48 version, is the rear leg room and an almost flat floor, although I guess that was at the expense of rear wheel drive in the S-Drive variants. I also like the inclusion of the cargo nets and roof mounts as it's a nice way to separate the cabin when I have the dog in the back.

The idea behind that F series was space. However, seats are smaller and perception plays a role too. The floor is indeed different as also the sitting position is different.
The E84 can have nets as well.
The E84 stays with me as I love it very much and it has already a sentimental value for me. Plus looks like new anyway and is barely used for its age.
Enjoy your car!
