M140i realistic discounts
Discussion
Hi all,
I am looking to buy a m140i either new or preowned for a short time. What sort of discounts to list prices can one expect when buying new these days (buying cash) from local dealers? Any dealers you would recommend in London area? Would appreciate your insight! Thanks and merry Xmas!
(Ps. I am new to the forums but have owned BMWs and a Mini over the years, bought in the US and Germany.)

Hi and welcome, I would get a quote from something like coast to coast cars and see what they can offer. Then take that the the dealer and see if they can match it. I specced up a 340i for about 10k lower than list, about 32k in all. Would have gone for it if the Px on mine wasn't about half the actual value of the car!

My second best quote on a new X1 bought for cash was from Tony Lewis @ BMW Berry , I think he’s the Heathrow branch and good for you is that he seems to specialise in the M140i.

He’s an easy Google to find out more info here or on BMW Baby dot net.
If you’re prepared to go further afield let me know and if you like I can dig out the details of the sales guy who beat Tony’s quote. No other dealers or brokers came close to these two.

I used Stuart Morris , it was Trainer BMW in Swansea at the time I got mine (March this year) since July taken over by Sytner BMW but he's still in post. In case any numbers have changed, probably easiest to try the new Sytner Swansea number/s as per link.

Considering one of these and if the prices on c2c are to be believed there's no point looking at used.
Has anyone got a local dealer to get close (unless they live by Berry Heathrow)?
C2C is a broker. Berry bmw is a main dealer.Considering one of these and if the prices on c2c are to be believed there's no point looking at used.

There is no point looking at anything les than a year old.
My local dealer beat berry slightly. I would have gone with trl if he was closer, there wasn’t much in it, ~£200.
The deals rely on factory support.
I spec’d our shadow ed to Just under 40k list and paid 32.5k

Only just started looking so haven't got my head around how the deals work yet other than when I went to my local BMW dealer to have a look they said deals/offers are calendar quarter so presume something new is due on Jan 1st but nobody seems to know what.I bought my M135i from my local dealer (Dick Lovett of Hungerford). They beat C2C by about £500 and threw in the service pack and the paint prep/ autoglym style finish. IIRC the discount was around £8,500 on a £41k spec car
I'd have used the C2C dealer (Sytner) but the guy didn't respond to my email 'I'm ready to go ahead with the order', of course as we know from the 'ask a car salesman anything' thread that any customer who emails is a waste of time

This is Tony Lewis current deal ,he will not do Part exchanges http://www.babybmw.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=80&am...
As a guide, Tony beat the C2C price on my M240 by about £500 this time last year, so those prices are very much real.
Depending on how the BMW discounts are structured at the moment you may need to take some finance (from any dealer/broker) as sometimes an element of discount is offered by BMW Finance so not available for full cash purchases, however you can take out a small amount on HP and pay it off within 14 days and retain the discount without paying any significant interest so can get around it either way.
