Can anyone explain why the hell this is so cheap! The nearest ones at BMW dealers are at least £10k dearer! Someones just grabbed a bargain here I think.

Can't comment on the price, but Autoquake do have the best photos of any car dealer I have ever seen. Very impressive.

is that really that cheap? i would never spend £24k on that, and you say most are £10k more? madness.

I think their stock is mainly all ex-lease cars that then go to auction if they don't sell.

Which means they have very low margins as they work on high volumes.

That 135i is probably an early lease termination and the price reflects what it owes the finance company.

For that car and that spec it's "good" value. I reckon it'd be £3-4k dearer at a BMW dealer.

I assume they do cost plus pricing,

They take the cost of the car and add their margin on, no matter what the car is.
