[rokut]

Order now, deliveries from end September. Apparently

as an audi driver so used to being in off topic, I forgot that a new 3 series might class as on topic... even if not an F31...

Haha yes, there's a whole thread in the 'other area which must not be named and most definitely not visited'

Btw, just for info, my S4 will soon turn into an A35. Wish me luck!

Nice car. Have to say my son in law has a C43 and before that an E450 coupe and Mercs have grown on me.... the E450 was sublime, the C43 a different beast and not for me but he loves it!

[rokut]

If I could have afforded it then the 43 (or ideally 63!) would have been on my drive. But ~£16k for a 43 variant for 2 years, 10k p/a and more like £20k+ for the 63's. GULP! So my £12k, including services for the A35, will have to do over the next two years!

he works for a dealer group so his will cost him about £700 for 3 months / 10k miles....

The A35 is nice, and certainly would be on my list if I wanted a pocket rocket. Sadly nowadays I am more concerned about refinement... and speed obvs...

What was the deal in the A35, PM if you prefer. Kinda fancy one for my wife but haven't seen any great deals yet.

[rokut]

Yeah not a great deal, but as good as I could find at the time. 3+23, £476 a month, A35 Premium Plus, which makes it £12.4k for two years, 10k p/a - and because it was stock it had the 3 x free services included with it (you can have a standard A35 for ~10.5k over two years still from what I have seen).
Mine is in Sun Yellow and will be with me in a few weeks and in good time to ditch the S4 before I'd have to spend £550 on a service (should be back in October). So a bit heart over head, but it works for me.

Was chasing a Jupiter Red car in stock prior to this which would have been around £1k cheaper over the term, but got to it just too late. So this one was a more expensive but decent alternative

From the side view, looks like a SAAB!

I'm amazed the new coffin carrier hasn't generated more chat on here. F31 seemed to 50% of the cars on here.

Probably because there's another thread in the on-topic area covering the same car.
