Decided i want one of these new as they seem to be keeping their values.

Anyone know where the best place to get one with a discount it? BMW dont seem to be wanting to discount it at all!

Good luck, they're in strong demand.

Try carwow, you never know. Broadspeed are offering two grand off. Try a few other brokers.

I've a 1,000 mile grey one, four months old, being part-exed this weekend if no-one takes it.


Very high spec (£52k paid for it earlier in the year from new).

Im looking for a new one with the few enhancements that came along recently im afraid.

Had a look at Broadspeed and a new one is quoted as £44,609, so with the £1700 of options i want its coming in at £46,551.

Wonder what sort of PCP deal BMW would be doing on these - im assuming a £20k residual after 3 yrs would be realistic, assuming 6k per annum?

Fair enough.

What are the recent enhancements?

I'm not sad to see mine go, despite dropping £8k in four months. There was absolutely nothing wrong with it but I realised that I just didn't need another small coupe.

Nothing major to be fair.

Think the rear lights and front lights are a little different, and the dashboard has had a minor facelift.

Its all very superficial stuff, but as i need the car for next March, ordering around now suits.

You can obtain an indicative finance quote using the BMW website. GMFV appears to be about £27k after 36 months.

May I ask why? Just interested, by all means tell me to mind my own business.

Speaking to a few dealers today i think thats pure BS (and i was told that same 'lie' by a dealer trying to flog me a cancelled order for last yrs model 2 months ago).

If you put an order in today, you can have one in March apparently, and so far managed £1k off list price from car wow. Not a lot but something.

I've just not fallen in love with it like I thought I would, and am not driving it. I've not settled on any car since I sold my B7 RS4 five years ago, I've bought a 911, an SLK55, a C63, an R8, and now the M2, and none has quite filled the gap.

I'm swapping the M2 for an M3, as one of the things I miss the most is the practicality; and while I've got the R8 I just can't see me using the M2 much.
