Exclamation Crazy UK X3M Competition deals!!

There are some crazy cheap X3M Competition deals cropping up currently, thought I’d share in case anyone UK based looking on here is considering one.

£549 deposit and £549pm, or £0 deposit and £566pm!

They’re not as good as that in reality but they are good.

I’m off the Stratstone today to do a deal.

Basically the deal is only on stock cars so once you’ve added options they all come in at more than £549

That said, I’ve got a deal where I get rid of my 440 with huge negative equity, small deposit and still only pay the same as I pay now.

Fingers crossed it goes well today.

Literally picked mine up Friday and I think my deal is about 5k out going off the deals above. As I'm within the 14 day cooling off period do you think I'll have any weight to claw this back somehow?

The cooling off period starts from when you sign the finance paperwork doesn't it? Which is always more than 2 weeks before the car is collected.

I didn't sign the finance documents until the day because it all happened pretty quickly. My car qualifies for the deals above as it was in stock and delivered between the dates stated. I've had the new finance rate of 2.9% but not the full dealer or BMW contribution. Not sure what I can do or where I stand.

I'm really not sure, maybe Goneinsixtyseconds or isleaiw can help, they seem to know a fair bit about these things.

Not sure you can really do anything. The cooling off period allows you to cancel the finance, but not give the car back.

You still need the cash or finance to pay for it if you do that. They're not going to let you just take new finance and give you more discount.

Go back to the dealer and see if they can swap out the financing. It should cost the dealer $0 to get it done if it is a factory supported program. You are not asking to return the vehicle, just change the financing I assume. Just not sure if BMW UK will allow it.

Did you get anywhere with Stratstone? I’m tempted by this too, test drove the X4MC today and was pretty impressed. Local dealer can’t match it but Stratsone seem to have the best deals I would say, think it will be X3MC for me.
