About to order 335D

Hi everyone,

I am finally about to order a 335D after months of debating, I will be getting rid of my Seat Ibiza Fr and F30 320D M sport auto.

Has anyone had dealings with Knights North Staffordshire? I found a great deal on Carwow and then negotiated a great PCP deal. I'm going to head down to the dealer the week after next to test drive a 335D and sort the paperwork out.

I have gone crazy on the options list, has anyone managed to get a service pack included or accessories when ordering after being a little cheeky?

Options:
-Mineral Grey
-Dakota Red leather
-Active cruise control with stop and go + speed limiter.
-19" M Star spoke alloy wheels - Style 403M.
-BMW Individual leather instrument panel.
-Piano black trim.
-Individual sun protection dark tinted glazing for rear window and rear side door windows.
-Electric front seats with 2 position memory on drivers + drivers mirror memory + auto dip park function on passenger mirror + heated door mirrors.
-Harman/Kardon logic 7 surround sound system.
-Driver + passenger electric lumbar support.

Thanks
Nat

Why bother with anywhere else, just go straight to the best like most of us do, i.e. Tony Lewis (TRL) TRLdeals@outlook.com

If you tell him I sent you, he will look after you!

You might think you've got a great deal compared to carwow, but unless you say what it is, nobody can confirm it.

Hi Robbiep,

RRP was £45,675, Knights Staffordshire via Carwow £36,955.

BMW Bristol quoted £36,421 but the monthly payments where rediculous.

Likewise Damien,

I was in a dealership 2 years ago and seen a F30 320D M sport in the mineral grey and red Dakota, I instantly felt gutted with the colour and trim I made. 2 years later it's time to rectify that

I'm not 100%, I love the look of the orange but I recon it could be the new estoril blue with everyone having it.

Now honestly everyone what's your thoughts, should I order the current model at the discounted price above or wait and see what Tony etc can do on etc. shadow line model?

Do you recon they will be able to discount as heavy on the facelift model?

Depends how much the changes matter to you. You can easily & cheaply add the black grilles, mirror caps and exhaust tips, but the dark lights and the new 704M style wheels would obviously be cost prohibitive.

It's not really a facelift, the facelift happened 2 years ago, this is just an update to the options.

I was going to say why not get the M Sport plus pack as you're going to order most of the bits from it anyway. Shadowline pack is just what the M Sport plus pack is changing to.
