recommended by BMW, you'll probably find a Shell branded oil with LL-04 spec.

Thank you both.
I found
BMW TWINPOWER TURBO ENGINE OIL LL-04 5W-30 listed online but it is not available on BMW's official store or even at their eBay/Amazon page.
So I have taken your advise and decided to go for
Shell Helix Ultra ECT C3 5W-30
It's currently £42 for 5Ltr 😀 so it saves me like £25
