My 535d Touring is getting a bit leggy now and I cant think of anything better to replace it than a Macan (which is too pricy and low mpg) also an A6 Avant 3.0 Quattro even on a good deal is pricier and may not be as fun to drive, similarly XF Sportbrake and any non AMG Merc .

A quick chat with a local dealer reveals a £57k new well specced car with 50 miles on it for £38k (inc a £2k cashback to make up for the huge 10.9% APR on PCP). Seems to be quite the no brainer!

I know the new model will be out in in April but that is quite a juicy discount. I'm not missing anything am I as it seems silly not to push the button?!

Yes would be a newfangled F11 smile

Equivalent of £360 pm and then hand it back after 24 months for that 530d saloon - not bad! I have to have a 535 in touring though - sadly. Cheers

If you work hard you may be able to halve the headline APR biggrin

No probs mate - the deals are very open on the internet so wont p off my dealer unnecessarily... Just have a look for pre reg F10/F11 - spec varies a lot and can be £10k difference in price. Mine is absolutely loaded other than adaptive headlamps (that I loved on the E61) but no one is speccing these it seems. Shame as they are great for the A470!





The £2k subsidy for 10.9% APR is a bit of a joke as I see it. A friendly chat got it down to what you can get from a broker so didnt use my broker this time. You want to be paying as little interest as possible as that just chews up your payments and how much you dig into the capital cost of the car.

They were a nice bunch at Cardiff and once they know you are not uninformed they work with you - having other potential cars to hand helps a lot as they never want to lose a deal smile

The car is excellent and a staggering improvement over the E61 in every single way - and a bargain! Happy days smile Do it asap before the new one with zero discount pops out!

£10k down and you could be in one of these for between £360-£390pm (spec and deal dependent - we started at £460pmeek). Once I pay £5k off mine I'll switch to a 3.3% loan and clear it in 3 fully owning the car and not worrying about mileage as I do it.

G30 looks a little 'Merc' to me - bit rounded in places. BMW's should be pointy/sporty!

I think this F11 will be epic when I get the RFT's off and will ride even better - but I dont think there is a spare wheel well for me to pop my E61 space saver spare in (this cost me £250)! Its driving me mad as having to search for a new 19" matching RFT if I ever get a puncture in the back of beyond is the stuff that holidays and business get ruined by! . soapboxfurious
