X3M Competition Discount...

JustChris · 12-07-2019, 10:33 AM

Might be of interest to some of the recent X3 40i/d owners.

LV seem keen for business again these days. My insurance was with Debenhams (cheap last year outrageous currently see below, however would not recommend in general).

LV £337 annual (business use, wife etc too many variables for us all to be similar but for example)

Debenhams £1164

Chuffed as this is my cheapest insurance for some time.

Completely different car, but while LV were competitive for the X5, it was actually BMWs own insurance that worked out cheapest for me last week...about £100 less than anything on the comparison websites. Worth checkout out as I'd always just assumed they'd be dearer.

Whereas BMW wouldn’t cover me without a tracker - even for the 7 day drive away insurance. Mine is with LV as it was an existing policy but it wasn’t cheap...

I had a couple of issues around trackers too, declaring the value below 75k was the key with Aviva.

Yep people over value their cars putting the list price in and then wonder why they need a tracker.

Good news, I was pleasantly surprised as well, but the car is so new I doubt they have any stats to go on other than the insurance group and the X3 overall.

And lets face it this is the first time BMW have managed to shift any since it was released.

That's the easy step. Waiting on one dealership to find me a car, still have four appointments next week around the country next week with stock cars

Lovely car never thought I could like a red car but there is always an exception.

MashinBenzin · 12-08-2019, 02:33 AM

@moff that's just awesome. A really good red that suits the X3M. Beautiful interior too.

I'm planning to get the M Performance rear spoiler, but no price yet. The M Performance grill looks awkward to me.

I really don't think it needs it, it's already got a big spoiler!
