coming from ireland to uk for a 335d

[rossy00]

Hi, folks

my first post here so hi to everybody!!!
i'm looking at coming across to buy whenever i find the right car.
i have the money and can buy at anytime but would i be better off waiting till january?
would there be a better selection of cars then?
i'm looking for a 2008 coupe m sport. it has to be a 2008 as the road tax is cheaper in ireland on a 08.

so what fo you guys reckon my best options are?

Cheers.

You would assume waiting till Jan would see a lot of 08 3 year trade in's but don't wait till then.

Start looking now. Took me a while to find the right spec 335.

Actually thinking about it, it's March isn't it for the new reg's. It won't make any difference.

i've been looking for about a month now. when your spending that much money you want to make sure you buy exactly what you want, it's mad i've never spent so long looking for a car.
so you reckon the selection won't get much better come january?

Can't remember exactly but took 2 or 3 months to find the right spec low mileage, right colour, right wheels, with all the goodies 335.

Unless i'm missing something i don't think Jan will present a sudden plethora of 335's. You might get a few from fleet companies but these days not may fleets run 335's. It's mostly 318d's and 320d's.

suppose i'll just have to keep looking. it's so fustrating when you have the money ready to buy and

can't find the car you want. don't think there is to many people upgrading there cars either i'd

say that might have to do with the amount on the market also.

I'd contact a BMW dealer close to your landing port and ask them to source it for you - they'll probably have a better chance of finding the right spec for you?

Buy before Christmas. Prices nearly always firm up in Jan/Feb.
