The Deal is Done!!
After a couple of weeks speaking to various BMW dealers and lease companies I've settled on what I think is a cracking deal.
335d Msport Msport+ package Visibility package Pro Media package Electric seats Heated seats Service pack Full tank of fuel Black grills 48 months 8000 miles Is due in week 1 2014 cannot wait!! Thanks for all of the help everyone. Ray EDIT: Guys... I've been asked to change this post by the dealership as they are getting a lot of calls about this deal and it is not something that can be offered. What I'd like to remind anyone looking to get a similar deal is that I worked bloody hard to achieve this level of discount. I spent two weeks emailing and phoning many dealerships country wide looking for the best deal. It's never going to be as easy as making one call and landing a car above and beyond cost. I put up this post so that people could see these deals are out there if you are prepared to work hard to get it... and of course because I'm stupidly excited!! Anyway, good luck, and I hope you get a deal you are very happy with too. Last edited by M4dski11z; 11-30-2013 at 02:30 PM.. |

Yeah that includes VAT.
Went with Barons BMW Farnborough in the end, their deal was too good. Dealt with Greg Trimmer who is a top bloke. Second best (18.5%) was Ollie at Oceans BMW Cornwall. Oh, its Estoril Blue with black leather. Thought about Mineral grey/coral, but the EB is truly stunning in the flesh. It will be the fastest car I've ever owned, previous fastest was an e39 540i. I've only had a test drive in the 330d sdrive and that felt about as quick as the 540. Really looking forward to sub 5 second 0-60s! Last edited by M4dski11z; 11-30-2013 at 02:32 PM.. |

great work Ray congrats!! , I think my deal is just as good - it took a lot of work and ringing around
I note you have the service pack (did they throw it in FOC?) , I was wondering if I should go with it but the same as you I am 8k miles per year - probably 5-6k in reality so wondering its worth it. I think you can sell it on? I went with 3 years, I am toying with the idea of 4 years as I can't think of wanting another car in 3 unless a facelift model.... I wonder if I can change it still. I might even buy her after 3 as I imagine there might be equity with low miles... and then part x it a year later. TRL on babybmw is a cracking contact. I also spoke with Ollie - would have been nice to pick up the new motor from those parts |

yes with VAT and 3.9% APR to get such a low monthly (basically paying less than a 116d) i put down 9K.

@dazzapb The service pack was rolled into the monthly deal. It's listed at the bottom of the proposal with the road tax and delivery charge etc. The reason why I went for the service pack is that I may end up doing more miles, and may end up keeping the car to at least 3 years, just don't know yet. But my current plan is to run it for just under three years... monitoring equity for the optimum time to change. I had a new E91 320d in 2008 which I struggled to hand back at 3 years... amazing car. So I can't see me wanting to give up the 335d in a hurry. Either way, the service pack has me covered for whatever I plan. At 5-6k a year I doubt it will be worth it though. I'm sure I read somewhere that the service pack can be sold with the car so helps residuals? Yeah I thought about having a weekend in Cornwall while picking the car up (Ollie mentioned sorting out a hotel for me if the distance it was an issue), but Jan in the UK, it might as well have been Swindon! Just couldn't be bothered in the end. If it was the summer, it would have been hard to pass up. No delivery, have to pick it up from the dealership. Which suits me perfectly. I wouldn't want someone else putting the first few miles on it. PCH are different and usually include delivery to your door. But it's usually driven by someone. |

that's a stunning deal then! I assume you must have equity in your current car and put that down? what discount did you get, well done |

Also if you add the visibility pack it might make it cheaper as it ups the GFV more than it costs with M sport plus pack. You must have got a 20% discount with 9k down and those options.. well done!!!!

Bought mine from Greg, it's our 4th car from Barons (I live just down the road) and even too the 335xd back for Greg to take for a spin since they hadn't sold any others! What I didn't know is that he plays golf with my dad too (family friends...). Small world! Enjoy it when it comes.
