Just a quick questions to UK members really.

The 2.9% / deposit contribution / chassis support deals they have been running in the UK expires end of December. UK stock is now low on these cars so finding the right spec car is almost impossible. More cars are on their way I'm told. Do we think BMW will continue the deals to the same level into the next quarter / Jan? Thoughts?

[kzg1969]

i have been told no - its back to 4.9% and not clear on dealer contributions.

Already see most on Autotrader are back to about £10k contribution.

Maybe that deal will come back after a few months and the stock levels are bloated again?

[x3mcomp]

My local dealer said it's unlikely that they will see the same contributions/apr rates in Q1. Pretty sure the offers on the M4 were good in Q4 last year at 0% APR and went to 4.9% in Q1. Have you asked to see the UK list of cars left?

[dazzapb]

I was hoping to order one now for March del.

In error the T&Cs for BMWFS stated this was possible but alas
Wasn’t true

I’ve been told Apr will increase to 3.9 and the 5k from bmw fs will vanish.

I am hoping more support will be forthcoming as I want to order one

My Audi lease is up in April. But I can do a informal extension for 3 months until June. (needs mot and brake fluid service in March) but happy to do so and play the waiting game.

Cheers

This has been covered on the UK F30 thread a fair bit...main feeling is that Q1 is never as good as end of year Q4 plus they wanted to shift the stock cars so X3/4 M Comps and M40i/40ds were the main focus which have now been pretty much snapped up. Prob more X4Ms still as not as popular.

[X3MSteve]

I've seen the UK list, it's very slim now, I'd say 20-30 cars left pre 31st December delivery

No basic ones, some with 2000 of options up to £5800 for donington grey with brown leather


Edit, This is X3M too sorry, haven't looked at the X4M list

[aliwtsn]

Same as everyone above, I was told back to 4.9% apr and unsure if anyone would get half the discount we have seen this quarter.

Also available cars are few and far between and that's for both X4M/X3M..

[dazzapb]

Hi Steve. Just wondering if you know where I can see the list?

Who owns the cars?

Still would be open to push for a deal

Cheers

Any dealer should be able to see them on the system, they will be spread around the network.

[daltonvaas]

For anyone still looking, my advice is stay persistent, I was told by a number of dealers that there were no X3MC's in Donnington Grey and guess what, I found one....with the right number and type of extras too....

[ClaretFozzy]

I'd be amazed if there was the same level of discount for the X3M and X4M in Q1 2020.

They've been practically giving them away and I honestly can't ever remember an offer on any BMW as good on a PCP (list price v discount v GFV)

Yeah this is crazy, the last offer this good was when they were doing the M4 for 0% finance

[Wills2]

It's a similar deal to the M5 deals the qtr previously, they will allocate the funding to a qtr to shift x amount of a certain model.

Given the amount of cars my dealer tried to get for me and failed, we sat there on evening and the following morning in the end and went through his MS DOS system that shows all the cars and their specs. I'm sure if you ask nicely and say you aren't sure what you want, can you show me exactly what's left in the UK they may let you sit and watch them go through the list. There is some private detail in there though such as the dealer who has the car so they may not let you see it

Snap, I've gone from Donington to Tornado red and now back to Donington and car is 100% secured with the exact spec I originally asked for when I first called the dealer!

[M4SW]

Thanks for all the advice. Much appreciated. Looks like I need to grab one now.

I'm after Donington Grey, black leather or black beige leather, carbon trim. In terms of extras a pan roof, comfort pack, enhanced bluetooth with wireless charging would be nice.

I better get on the phone unless anybody knows of one knocking about ?!

[zeusrazvy]

What deposit contribution you guys got? They lowered them now?

Overall I think the deals have been between 20k-22k depending on spec and how hard you pushed. Mine was around £20,750 off looking at the paperwork, deal is on until end of Dec.

If you want one I'd go to a dealer and sit down the sales person and go through the UK list there and then it'll be better than calling dealers on the off chance I think.

I did that with my dealer.

Probably spot on, a mate of mine just ordered a X4MC, had a choice of two for this dealer.

Moving from Audi A4 Avant 1.4 Black Edition to this, for less per month...mad 😂

I spoke with a dealer today to search for other cars available, basically UK stock is minimal, from memory for UK stock there were 4 black sapphire cars available, none with ivory white, possibly 2 had pan roof. There were more in Phytonic blue and red available and a few Donington grey, options are limited though so yes you would need to move quickly if you locate a car, especially in Donington with pan roof.

I was offered a few more options for the X4M but I need the boot height hence the X3 for me.

[X3M40i_Nev]

Anyone looking for X4MC, I know my dealer has at least one available (as at Friday).

PM me, I will give you Sales Manager details 👍
