M135i - best discounts and finance rates?

[richatnort]

Just been reading about the face-lift M135i that's due in march. Anyone think they're going to do the same bonkers lease deals they did for the first one?

Here's hoping so next December so I can replace my current one! My lease runs out in March 2016 so I've already starting pondering what I'm going to do! :-/

Snap.... Mine goes back in March 2016, hoping for another great Q4 deal on something!

I think the M2 is due later this year, however due to the probable demand I can't see the deals being that attractive.

Not sure if I would have another M135i or whether I fancy a change.... Hmmmmm

[DibblyDobbler]

New one looks pretty good! ( more here ) Am I the only one wishing we got the option of 4WD on the M135i? I haven't been able to use full throttle in the first 2 gears since around the end of October

Cheers for the advice. Mine did it again last weekend. Booked into Elms at the end of feb.

Interesting about the facelift. Getting very attached to it now. The Mrs wants it to stay. I hope the buy-out at the end of the lease is reasonable. Any kind of facelift will push residuals down...

Just thought I would see what you all thought on this deal for a M135i on business lease

Comfort Pack/Alphabet Driver Pack 1/Met Paint/4 door/Auto

Its a 9 + 23 @ £254.47 + Vat a month with a 10,000 a year excess mileage is 13.78ppm.

I saw the Halliwell BMW deal on the net @ £229 but that stopped apparently last year and has gone up to about £280ish.

Am I silly not to go for the deal or should I be asking for a little more?

9+ is alot to put down,

last eyars deals were on 6+ and £215+vat so this deal is £1900 more over two years

I'm finding it pretty hard saying no to this current offer:

Got rid of my last M135i last Feb but could be tempted to take another at that money.

So assuming the deals not that good as last year do you think I should be pushing for more?

Or alternatively is there anyone here knows where I can get a better deal?

Mine is due up in 12 months so no idea what to do but current thinking is pay the £14k GFV as it seems like a cheap car for that money.

This might be of interest to some!

The M2 will be available by then.

Why did you get rid of it?

Surely spending the best part of £18,000 on something you've had previously and got rid of isn't a great idea?

I've contacted the branch, too. These are pre-facelift, 3 door manuals in white, with no navigation.

It's a lucrative offer considering there's little deposit but I think it would soon get boring. It's a bare bones M135i.

Over £9k for 2 years, when you can hand it back. Doesn't seem like a good deal to me!

I got rid of my last car to buy another Z4M which I have since sold as my circumstances now require more than 2 seats.

If you dig a bit deeper there is great finance rates being offered by BMW which is driving these deals in the dealership along with good "deposit" contributions.

I just want a fast daily driver so at this price its hard to say no for a brand new car.

There is good dealing to be done at the minute. My local dealer has matched the deal above and allowed for adding options at a cost.

Considering what I paid up front 2 years ago for my M135, this is a good deal.

I'm picking mine up tomorrow, it's pre-registered, so that will have knocked off a chunk anyway, but going via BMW Select ours worked out at the following:

RRP was £37,150 (I've specced the same car up on the configurator)
Price to us was £29,850 or thereabouts
£3000 deposit
£356 a month for 47 months
GFV was about £14,000

Not sure how good or bad it is, but I'm happy with it. TRL over on BabyBMW thinks that the deals on the updated one won't be so good for a while at least.

One to watch to see how that plays out.

[AOK]

Facelift models are looking quite attractive I think.

£275pm on a 6+23 for an alpine white 5 door manual with the business nav and driver package. Only 6,000 miles pa though.

Seems quite similar to those awesome G2L deals they were doing 2 years ago?

[CRB14]

Serious question here guys.....any tips for driving an auto on standard tyres in the snow? We've just had a light sprinkling and it's already all over the place. I'm concerned I'm not going to get home tonight.
