Finance 'offer'

[Dr Jekyll]

A local BMW bike dealer is advertising 'special offers' on certain new bikes, of an APR of 7.9%, I think for PCP and HP. How on earth is that a special offer? Is bike finance always that expensive?

It is a special offer .... for the salesman and the dealer !!
Jesus titty !! That’s about 4% flat I’d say that was a rip off ... you would get close to that on a used bike if you shopped around.. 0% with a decent deposit would be a bit more sensible...

There are better offers available but it depends which bike you want https://www.bmw-motorrad.co.uk/en/offers/highlight...

Christ on a very expensive motorbike!

A GSA over 2 years with a 2k deposit is nearly £800 quid a month @ 7.9pc HP.

Its all the start of the negotiation, I bought a "approved" car from BMW last December, they tried starting that at 12.9 % and ended up at 5.9..

In my experience 5.*% is generally BMW’s bottom end I’ve found. It’s the after-sales and added bits chucked in after.
