That would be JC of Dundee then mate
They were my starting point when looking at the X3MC but at the time it was pre LCI. JC had the best deal on the table across the whole of the UK from what I could find with 6k and 11.5k BMW FS & JC discounts respectively , combined 17.5k discounts and at the 2.9% rate. When the pre LCI was dropped from purchase and the LCI was introduced the pricing changed somewhat , with quite an increase in MSRP and less contributions.
What worked for me though is that I took JC's pre lci offer to my dealer , which they priced matched, then when the LCI was introduced my dealer maintained the same deal as matched on the pre LCI. My dealer already had the best trade-in offer on my 440i. Unfortunately my dealer shot themselves in the foot when they reduced my 440i by £500 in July, irrespective of the market still on the rise for AUC. Nonetheless I already had two other dealers around the table on the X3MC LCI deal, one of which ticked all the right boxes and was super keen to have me on board as a new customer . So I got my 26k trade-in providing 4.5k of equity , and a priced matched deal on the X3MC LCI that actually was the original pre LCI deal offered by JC
All that said my trip back home will be from the South West back to the Isle of Anglesey
Doing the Maths on my deal .. I am just shy of your 22% at 19% or thereabouts, as you ordered yours in May that would be still based on the pre LCI deal
The whole process has been a tactical mission to say the least with timing critical in achieving the best trade in deal and the best deal on a new car ... desired objective achieved!
The wait continues .. and will i regret not going for AW, SPY, BSM or BG ? and opting for the SMB'esque MBB .. we'll see .. tbh I really don't care .. I saw a metallic brown X1 yesterday on my trip over to Liverpool , even in that "poo" colour I'd be happy ... it would be the definitive "sh1t off a shovel" then
