Wind noise on new 3 series model

I have just bought a 62 plate 320 x drive and I immediately noticed the high levels of wind noise above 50 mph. On line forums have many comments about this for the new 3 series..Is this a recognised issue by BMW and is there an official fix for it?

I ran an F30 320dED for 6 months and 7,000 miles and was never aware of this. So must be a seals problem on some cars, not others, or might be road noise rather than wind noise. Of course, if its a 62 reg then could have been crashed and repaired and that might be the reason for the wind noise.
