That's good news, they seem to be trickling through steadily now. You'll have to post some pictures when you get it, there's hardly any on this thread.

As expected, the cars for sale by flippers aren't going anywhere fast... I just don't think there's a big enough market for that on this car.
Crikey, just looked on AT to see what they're up for sale for. I thought there'd be two or three up. I counted fourteen up for sale from flippers!!! The market certainly isn't that big for paying such big overs on the things!! I think they'll all see big reductions to sell..
That must be a significant percentage of delivered cars surely?

Hope every single one of them gets burned.

It must be.... I'd guess 30% or so ? Something of that magnitude.

So my car’s been built date has just been pushed back 3 months, now arriving end of July rather than next month, anyone else experienced similar?

Seems to be a bit all over the place - a few cars have arrived a couple of weeks ahead of schedule. Have you got anything like Individual paint which could put things back? Or maybe there's just supply chain issues?

Needs a clean, but very pleased with the colour scheme and wheels, will pick it up on Monday. Going to be a long four days or so...



Looks superb, look forward to some more pics once you've collected.

Last bid was £86,500 and some change. Plus roughly £5250 in buyers fees. The seller said the the list price was around £91,500. Reserve not met. Would love to know what the reserve was.

Shows there is no market for these at over RRP. Who would have thought?

It’s a BMW not a P GT car. Values always go south on Beemers

23 on Autotrader. Priced from £94k - £119K.

There's also a Cat S on there for £75K which seems to be a 320i chassis with all the M3 bits bolted on. Incorrect dashboard and stuff like that.

Watching the market with interest.

Some have been on there for weeks now, even good/full spec cars so the market isn’t there for premiums.. I’m sure there will be the the odd exception but generally not.

If these ever get to the same deals as the xdrive saloon I’ll move into one, but at the minute with the lack of discount and silly apr figures I’d just feel ripped off for what is essentially the same car.

Wait 6 months and you'll pick up a nearly new one for low 70's, finance might be tricky but the prices are going to drop sharply by the autumn i reckon

More on AT than delivered to customers in UK by the looks of it! LOL. Unless those were customer (prospector) cars before they were moved on.

A lot will be dealer demos some genuinely for sale and others to get buyers in to try and upsell to new orders

There's only one car from an OEM authorised dealer (Sytner) and even that one has been registered already, now used and up for significantly more than list. BMW now doing a Porsche? Recall that happening with the M2 CS but that was a limited car.

All others for sale are private or indies.

RS3 the same. Genuine customers with an order placed can't get them built yet there are 100 or so on AT mostly £5k+ above the RRP.
