All the Douglas Parks seem to do them but for us nearest would be Harry Fairbairn BMW, Kirkcaldy,

there is Prestige Performance Centre, Bo'ness listed but id rather have a BMW dealership fitting.

Thanks. Is your tourer AUC or new? I swithered over a few of Vardy's 2015 AUC before going for an older one down south.

AUC. This was the only 330D Xdrive auto with Prof Media and Tinted windows in Scotland at the time. I was wanting to wait until after the new reg to buy but they had the car and I drove a hard bargain with them.
I used my own finance to get it so it worked out around the same monthly payments as Personal Finance. Without the buy back and without the Mileage Worry.

Nice one. I was looking for months, was planning to go and see a Superman spec M-Sport that is about to come on at Douglas Park Stirling when I spotted a Modern with Adaptive Suspension and Pro Nav in Newcastle. I will probably switch to black grilles and vinyl the chrome window trim.

I failed to negotiate any kind of reduction despite being a cash buyer. Possibly hamstrung myself by trading in a 120k MkV GTI rather than going all cash.

I must be strange as i Like the chrome grills and the Window trim.
I traded in too. my 318 was from them and serviced by them and the sales man did say that it actually looked better than some cars he has sold.

i did spend 4 hours the day before detailing it....

Well. An update.

Had the car a year.

Still want the springs, black wheels and now looking at tuning boxes.

Paid off the finance so car is all mine to do as I wish.

I got my springs supplied and fitted by Parks in Stirling. Was about 600 quid all in, I think.
