Hi,

I'm looking to buy a pre-reg e90 330i from either Williams Liverpool or Manchester.
Anyone have any dealings with them before?
Price listed is 25k, 5000mls 07 plate.

How much do you think I could haggle off the price?
Was thinking of offering 23.5k...is this being unrealistic.
I don't have a tradein.

Thanks,
Al

If you offer £23.5k then they will at the minimum get you half way. If you want to pay £23.5k, offer £22k. smile

Each car is individual as to what discount you'll get, they don't all have the same margin.

Compare price and spec in the market place and make your own judgement to what you want to pay.

If the car is the cheapest on bmw.co.uk then I doubt you'll get anything off as it's priced to sell.

The dealer actually has several cars of similar spec and price.
Seems to have been on the site for a few months now.

The 330i's they are selling are the pre-Efficiency Dynamics versions.
Could this be the reason they are not getting shifted quickly.

The difference between ED cars and non ED cars will have an efect on the 'new' buyer as it will efect there car tax...

If you are buying used then the savings in increased MPG are whitewashed by the cost difference between a new one and a used one.
