My Ride: 530d Sport,6spd Manual, Carbon Black, Black Leather, Electric Seats, Visability Package.
Been driving my 530d sport for a week now and it is such a great car to drive. 
I did'nt think driving a diesel would be such fun. I must admit I do miss the growl of my 330i Sport. But I have now chosen diesel economy and I am so impressed. How many UK owners have chosen an Manual over Auto ?
Also anybody have experience in geting their iDrive software upgraded in the Surrey area.
Will get some better photos over the weekend

I must admit the Carbon black was not what I expected, it is more of a navy blue than a black. My 330i was Black Sapphire which would have been a lot nicer but unfortunetly it was not available.
Here is a pic of the 2 together before I handed the 330i back to the leasing company.
