Speaking of Dealers, From my experience with BMW since 2008 I've found Rybrook Warwick to be the best I've been to (purchased 4 cars from there for this reason).

Latest car was bought from Sycamore which was great too.
Utter morons - I had a similar experience with some Italian bell end at Cooper York when I enquired about a £30k X5, he told me I should be looking at a car “more like £20k” all because I’d done my research on PCP interest rates & I was trying to get him to be transparent with his numbers.

Two days later I spent the same money at Dick Lovett in Swindon on my Individual 330d & had the best buying experience I’ve had to date!!

Had all the pads changed on my 430d with M-Sport + brakes under warranty. Done about 40 miles in the car now and seems alright for now!

Car has covered 15047 miles

Cheers!

I’ve started squealing at 50k - if brake late it doesn’t happen - much to the annoyance of the OH
