I can’t believe these cars won’t be available with discounts very soon. I bought my current 540 just as it was launched, (the demonstrator I tried had silly covers over the BMW badges) and still got a very good discount.

The estate version may take longer.

Does anyone know if the G21 M340 is available with the full ivory white merino leather like the saloon ? It doesn't appear on the configurator. It's the £2750 option rather than the £990 one.

The ivory white merino is available without the leather dash, but appears to not be shown on the configurator with the leather dash and door tops. However you can pick other options e.g. black, black+blue, black+red. Full Tartufo isn't shown either.

Depends what you mean by very good! Discounts in the mid-teens are available on the M340i saloon now and I daresay something similar will be available on the Touring in the not too distant future; however, that's some way short of the circa 25% discounts that were available on the F31 and I suspect that sort of level won't be offered on the G21 until 12 months or so after launch....

Here’s over £5000 off list. It took me a few moments to find it, I’m sure I can do better when I’m ready to change in the New Year.

I don’t think we’ll be seeing 25% discounts anytime soon.

Thought this wasn't bad, until I saw the price:

9k deposit and a grand a month.... For a 3 series!

Jesus.

That is based in the used APR though of 12.4% though which is going to add shed loads to the cost. £56k too for a posh 3 series with 150 miles on the clock....

Wow that looks lovely IMO. But price is mental.

£5k of M Performance accessories on top of RRP. It's also Sytner whose prices are always at top end of market. Must be some haggling to be had.

BMW AUC have been pretty much flat out ‘no’ on any negotiations in my experience. Cant even usually get them to open a dialogue. Maybe a few hundred quid here and there.

A few hundred quid isn’t worth talking about on a £50k car. It’s a token gesture to get you to shut up.

Looks to be pre-reg rather than used. There's a few grand off surely?.

I've got my heart set on the new M440i when my car goes back in March next year, but can't see them being available then

Might try and extend or possibly run a shed for a few months in between

To be fair if the new 4 series has a grill anything like the concept I'll be moving to a 3er next.

I can't disagree with you there! I'm holding on to the glimmer of hope that the grill is about 1/3 of the size that it was on that concept

I put a deposit on a new 340i they had in stock in Canterbury on Saturday - managed to get a fair discount off and 2.9% apr.

They may look better on a darker coloured car.
