New 320d M Sport Pro Touring

Hi Gents

I feel its time to move on from my F32 , We have gained a Grand daughter and I think we need a more practical car ,

Where would be the best price to buy a new 320 D ?

would it be better to lease or PCP with some support from the manufacturer or Dealer

Any advice would be great fully received as the last time I bought a new car was severn years ago

Garage List
Check out carwow.co.uk for brand new cars.

It depends how long you want to keep the car, but it seems most of the time now they're designed for 3yr lease deals where you hand the car back at the end of year 3 and you never own the car or have equity.

If you plan to keep it long term, then HP is best, or PCP if you want the options to either give it back our buy it outright.

Capital Car Finance are a broker for HP/PCP/Lease finance and are often cheaper than main dealers and second-hand car finance. You can always re-finance down the line after you've taken out the original dealership finance, as dealers usually throw in deposits etc, and finance is a great negotiator, once you've agreed a price on the car, then you can start go haggle on the finance rates too.

Depending on how much you're funding, a bank loan may be worth looking at too. I can get £25k at 3% APR at the moment.

BMW Finance is 2.9% across the whole range for Q1

Sadly, I think you are £4-5k out on the pricing, whether pre-reg or new.
Admittedly, this query belongs to the G21 forum because there aren't any new F31 M Sport Pro nowadays.

There are lease comparison sites these days. There can be huge variation in what you pay. The best deals right now are on X3 30e M Sport, cheapest they've ever been for reasons I can't fathom, but very tempting.

Edit:... And 7 series. Plenty of space in there!
