looking good man 
one thing caught my attention though and just stuck to my mind.. on the lci there's no handle on the driver's door like there is on the passenger doors and the past e60s?

I asked the very same question back end of last week, there have been a number of conversations about it - I was sceptical about how it would look but in all honesty, once you see it in the flesh you don't notice, and it does make the drivers cockpit area feel less clutered (free movement to the right of the wheel (UK Cars that is) down onto the window and mirror controls - it is actualy a very ergonomic set up - a lack of symmetry between the doors looks odd at first glance but my personal view is function in certain circumstances is better than form, in this case I think BM got it right

I have been to Bracknell (UK) today and test drove a few BMW's. One of those was the LCI 535d M Sport. The car was amazing to drive, very responsive and very smooth. The gearbox was working nicely and smoothly. I pushed a few times in DS mode and WOW 
I also took a few pictures, one was of a carbon black metallic and the other a Platinum Grey metallic.
