Not doing the miles I thought I would be doing!

So the 320d Xdrive M Sport is going, looking at either an M3 or M5.

Best deal I can find on the net is at Peter Vardy, £6k in and £650 a month on a 48 month PCP for an M5.

Would prefer an M3, but down to no discount and no finance deal I wouldn't want to pay more for a car that costs less to buy!?

Anyone know of any good deals on either model? Ideally someone who will give me 13% off and 0% on a new M3? biggrin

M3 is to new but give it 6 months or so & the deals will come rolling in, the M5 is the better car IMO but take them both out & decide which suits you, I've not been impressed with the M3 & won't miss it when it goes.

I've been offered a drive in an M4 which will probably give me a good idea what an M3 is like but I don't think they have an M5 to drive.

If you prefer the M3/M4 then wait around a few months for deals. I suspect Q2 will bring a significant BMW contribution. There is already a thread on this, the best deals hover around the £649 pm mark.

Other option is to consider an M235i.... only .5s slower than an M3 I believe to 60.

Although, suppose you'd need to go for the M135i if you wanted 5 door.

Don't really want a car smaller than what I have now as getting kiddy stuff in is already a nightmare!

Think I might borrow this M4 and hold out for a deal on an M3.

That deal on M5 looks very good I must say with all contributions.

Has anyone ordered an F10 M5 recently? I want to know what sort of discounts are achievable with the 0% finance.

I went to my local dealership on the weekend with a view to replacing the wife's current 125d with a 335xd or X3, but have spotted this deal and am now rather quite taken by the idea of buying myself an M5 instead hehe

I have a leased Golf R coming which she can have...

The deal looks a bit expensive to me if you consider its over 4 years with only 8K miles etc and with the new M5 due out in a years time.

Where have you seen this?

The f10 is still being made and can't see a new 5 series being released until at least late 2016 prob 2017. The M5 normally comes out about a year or 2 after this.

I've just been offered 13.5k off an M5 and 0% finance over 48 months. (stock car but not registered)

So I've been quoted the above 12k / 0% on a factory order - haven't yet asked for availability of unregistered cars in stock.

Are you likely to buy?

I got £13,600 off with 0% so may as well leave cash elsewhere!

Its a factory order and I'm not taking delivery until end June

I also would have preferred an M3 but given the discounts, standard spec and ballistic performance of the M5 it was an easy decision. 0% was a bonus!

I went for 20" wheels but they are pricy at £2,100

I'm thinking of keeping the spec reasonably standard - adding comfort seats, HK, surround view and a few minor options and 'pulling the trigger' as they say around here.

I haven't had anything quite like an M5 but have enjoyed the waft factor of past E39 and E65 diesels, need something which can transport 5 in comfort and fancy some performance for a change. I'll betrading an E70 40d.

I'm looking for reasons to talk myself out of it but with 0%, a reasonable discount and a generous standard spec I'm struggling...

I want an M3, I have an M4 on loan tomorrow to see if I like the gearbox then I will probably hold out till next quarter and see what deals are available.

I will get a good discount on a new order anyway, but would like low rate or 0% finance too. Current deal is 6.9% with no support which isn't great! M5 is too big / flashy for me!

I've had loads of 5s and have an E60 M5 in stock at the moment but does nothing for me!

0% in q2 is very unlikely. It normally only comes nearer to LCI...

I've gone for 20" wheels, Harmon Kardon and Reversing camera

It was a big decision moving from a M3 to an M5 especially as my M3 is a manual box

I bought this quarter as I was worried that the 0% would disappear and this would make the deal less appealing!

I'm looking to buy an M5 now that my old car is sold.

Would you guys mind letting me know which dealers I should contact to get the sort of discounts mentioned above?

Many thanks!
