That sounds ideal. The LCI is an improvement, so I presume its in that category.
I am sure that you will be happy with it. |

I'd have another good look at that pricing - seems very expensive to me.
Important to appreciate that many options, including MPPK, do not hold value and should therefore be priced by the buyer accordingly.

When looking I did see another exactly the same with +1k extra miles @ £23.500 and that had no pano roof & no performance pack. All the 330s I was looking at took a hit on specs and were pushing low 30k mileages.

The simple fact is that a 20d + MPPK is not a close substitute to a 30d in terms of power, torque and refinement. Performance Pack is not worth paying anything extra for - the performance gains are marginal (I had MPPK on my 30d and was so disappointed with it that the purchase price was refunded to me). ETTO but if a reasonably specced 30/35d was within budget or a couple of grand more, IMO that'd be a much more satisfying purchase and driving experience. AUC and the warranty are worth having, but just be careful that you're not over-paying.

I saw 3 year old 335d's for well below 20k earlier this year. Ok, so maybe they weren't AUC and had 40k (which is nothing on these cars) on them, but it's a lot more car for a few grand less money in my opinion, and they were from car dealers not private sales. |

With 20d M Sport X-Drive F31s on the private market in the mid to upper teens, and less than 20K miles, the OP's choice does seem on the high side.

As I had yet to pay the balance, I have pushed them harder & negotiated further up the dealership tree to get a fair discount on the car with some extra items added at no extra charge to sweeten the deal further. Pick up is on Saturday morning and I can't wait.

I managed a last and final offer of a £1100 reduction in the price with inclusion of gap & wheel/tyre ins. This was bolstered with a subscription for the (middle) connected drive package, boot liner, clear bumper protection film to boot entry and bump up from one to two yrs of fully comp bmw warranty cover with no excess on second (negotiated year). Happy with that outcome and seeing the car/driving it again I feel it's a fair deal.
Was like asking for blood from them had to go to the dealership manager to turn the screws in the end the threat of walking so close to pick up probably helped.

Better not mention my (almost) fully loaded 335d that I'm going to put up for sale shortly..
Good luck with your new car, I'm sure you'll enjoy it regardless!
