Just looking about these guys have offered a very good price for a BMW, bettering the rest (Carwow, Drive the deal etc) by a decent margin.

Has anyone got any feedback on them? I cant find much from anyone thats actually used them.

Cheers
Matt

We bought a Seat from them about 3 years ago.

Car was factory ordered, 12 week lead time and no problems at all.

My only reservation was that it was a 'driven' delivery rather than collection from the garage.

Good luck.

Shouldn't be too much of a risk as long as any money goes direct to the dealer and not via the broker. I've not heard of them though, sorry.

For what it’s worth I’ve just ordered another car and was thinking about either a Skoda Scout or a VW Passat. In the end the discount on the VW was too big to pass on with another broker so I went with that but otherwise I’d have used them again to get me a Scout with no concerns.

The guy I'm talking to has said it'll be trailered to me when delivered, not sure how I'd feel about someone ragging it here for me lol.

Thats the bit that worries me, when the car is ready for delivery I pay them rather than the dealer from what I can gather. There site does say under the question and answer bit that some deals they just hook you up with a dealer and other deals they are the middle men. I thought I would just wack the deposit on a credit card but that only covers purchases up to £30k.

Can’t help on the company you’ve asked about but TRL (Tony Lewis) on babybmw.net is always worth a chat to about any new BMW purchase and he undercut all the brokers I quoted with when I was looking for my new 1-series.

Be careful with their finance options (unless you're a cash buyer)

They often don't offer the manufacturer's finance deals and source their own from memory

For the sake of a few £ I would just use one of the more mainstream brokers where you pay the dealer direct.

Thats the thing, if it was only a small difference then I would but they're a good few grand less than the others. It's a cash deal, for finance the rest are much closer but broker4cars seem to be able to offer a decent price even without finance.

Same here, great quote but you pay them not the dealer.
