Do you want me to email him and say you're interested? As far as I'm aware it has black leather, the MS+ pack including extended shadowline, and may also have the newer Live Cockpit Professional rather than Digital Dash.

Let me know
Congratulations on securing your preferred car

Thank you for the info. I think the silver one may be in the group stock of the dealer who contacted me so I’ll ask him first

If you change your pcp as you purchase your car to a higher contracted mileage, it costs a lot less than paying the excess mileage penalty at the end for a lower contract amount.
Not necessarily,I always set my pcp to correct mileage, I say always I've only ever kept a pcp on my last vehicle as I though it prudent with the war on diesels and buying big engine diesels, but also the company VW's I get for employees works out better to take 75K mileage over 3 years and pay any excess up to 90K / 100K instead of setting mileage to 90K

All I meant was your original calculation was wrong. You worked out your 7000 extra miles at the 23p additional mileage penalty. If you set it in advance, it's 14p per mile, I've had quotes, so a fair bit less. About £80 a month rather than the £135 you stated.

Looking at new x3 20i m sport plus pack

Hi Guys,

Been having issues with my 530i Series and its 2.5 years old and looking at the X3.

Dealer might be giving me a good deal but want to know what people think about the new 2020 model. with the cockpit display.

They said they they have found one for me. Its a lot different to the 5 i have and i have had 5's

I like the way we are higher up too.

Any flaws in the X3 domain for anyone?

Just advise on experience and what people think of the X3 Series?

Also are these deals defo great?

Cracking spec, and looks decent / awesome deal. Always good to keep under £500 👍

Thanks, I negotiated with a couple of dealers...

Tried to get an M40D MY2020 but i could not find a similar spec with delivery this year... plus each one of them with a few extras worked out more than an M... wtf? How BMW does these deals?

What's the down payment? And does that pay off all the finance on you 68 plate?

Sounds a cracking deal to me! But as asked above, depends on deposit whether it is a good deal or not, and what you are getting out of 68 M40 without negative equity?

When you say 387 do you mean bhp? I have the 2020 coming in a couple of weeks and wondered if they get more bhp as per the American cars?

I'm not sure how this works out as a good deal.

Does the 35k you're being offered cover the balance on your current pcp? How have you managed that?

The new deal does sound really good though. It's the 2.9% APR that is the most attractive.

Won’t even talk about the difference in fuel consumption ��. Love my 40d even more now.
Well done. I wouldn't pull the trigger on the X3M without a 24h test drive. Deals on the car is cracking but for some, the M40i/d will be the better car because of the kinder ride comfort and laziest power delivery.

The Seats D69 mentioned will be in the M-Sport Plus pack with the M40i/40ds that are built next year i believe..They already show on the configuration.

All BMW dealers are offering 2.9%, it's set by BMW Finance, as is the GFV and the finance deposit contribution. The only variable is what discount the dealer themselves are able to add to the deal, which will higher or lower your monthly payment in comparison to other dealers.
