On closer inspection, the later example has handles where the inner edges (that your fingers wrap around) are much more rounded and hence feels 'softer' to the touch. By comparison, the earlier ones almost felt sharp.

Anyone else aware of this little production difference ? Although small, the handles appear to be a completely different casting !
Agreed as the inner edges of the door handles on my pre-production car have a sharper edge, but the door handles on my 51 plate diesel has a softer more rounded edge to them.
