Before I pull the trigger..

Had a couple of different dealers badgering me to buy their m2 today, price has gradually levelled off at

New unregistered
£8.5k deposit
£300/month over 36 months
8k miles
• Seven-speed DCT
• Reversing camera
• Sun Pro Glass
• Folding Mirrors with Anti Dazzle
• Electric seats with Driver Memory
• Front heated seats
• BMW Icon Adaptive LED’s
• High-beam Assist
• Harman Kardon Hi – Fi

Is that about the going rate, or should I keep grinding?..

Thanks 👍

Thanks, I’m very pleased with the numbers but wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing anything with the way they are pushing. June sales targets and clearing out the old model seems to be the driving force👍

£8.5K is a massive deposit!! I would have a much lower deposit and do the PCP over four years then you can still VT after around three years

I’m still doing a self build at the moment, with a domestic mortgage required in a few months, so trying to get the monthlies down so not to impact that. Their first quote was £1k in and £499/month over 4years. They’ve stuck a load of discount on since then though

Assume it's the new Competition model?

Also the mileage is minimal is this enough?

Not a competition, this years end of line models. Think I’ll be keeping it long term, so miles not too much of a worry.

£100 pm better than mine and yours is 3yr and not 4yr like mine. 3.9%APR though which is £1400 interest difference.

I picked up one up at the end of May. One of the last remaining manuals (there weren't many) that were coming into the country. Not as well spec'd as the one you're being offered & I'm paying similar to your first quote over 4 years @ 2.9%, But now I'm kinda bummed I didn't push harder. Still, I got the car I want and I'm really happy with it, so never mind.

its a good deal!
i got the same spec in the last week of march 2018
i was coming to the end of my 4 year deal on my m135 which i was paying £ 375 a month - with 2 K back in 2014 (thought it was a good deal then lol)
they took the car back which had approximately 800-1k negative equity , I put in 3k for 360 a month! so i think every 1K is 25 pound less (roughly) yours is defo about right.
i would do a take it or leave it and say well i want the car but lets say 7k in 300 a month - i don't see them saying no. They want rid of stock - and a sale is a sale.

Thanks for all the input guys, it’s a done deal at those numbers, with a few sweeteners thrown in, keyring, full tank, etc.
Only change is it’s a 10k mile deal, I got that round my neck when I wrote this post, I did make him work out a lot of different finance scenarios.. :P

Trust me they all want the business...

I called a few to see what was sat in stock, what deals could be had and above all to drive one as no one had one available to test drive.

Last time I checked Lloyd BMW in Colne had a LBB one.

Sytner group were bringing a few in, that’s where I got mine, he showed me a list of them all. I think there were about 30 odd left coming into the country, mainly DCT, only 3-5 manuals. This was at the end of May and they had about 7 or so allocated to them.

I managed to beat what I’d been quoted on carwow (by another dealer) in the showroom, about 5%, but, as above, wish I’d have pushed harder now for a better deal. But I really wanted a manual and got hung up on the scarcity of them and caved haha.

I wanted manual also... there was 2 to choose from when i was looking and one was white (hate with a passion) and the other had the worst spec on an M2, Priv glass and HK.

Ended up with DCT and im happy to be honest. So smooth and no left leg pumping in traffic.

Can anyone share a quote?

Hi,

I'm also looking to buy a new M2 (DCT) and can see some of you have had some cracking deals. I'm trying to negotiate with my local dealer but they won't budge on price unless I can show them a lower quote from elsewhere. I wonder if anyone would be open to sharing their quote (even if you've bought yours) - I hope that's not too out of order.

I'm looking for something like the deal recently offered on http://anym.co.uk/news/finance-offer...e-bmw-m2-lci-2 but my dealer won't accept that for comparison purposes because it's expired.

My dealer has 3 in group stock but I need to show them a quote and they said they will match (i guess they don't want to be the first to drop the price).

Current dealer offer is £2k deposit and £471 a month for an M2 DCT. I'm looking for at least £50 off that a month.

Thanks in advance and any help will be greatly appreciated.

Tom

Your dealer is smoking something...

Hello all,

New member here. Just signed up a for a black M2 at Lloyd Colne BMW near Burnley. Salesman called Sebastian. Managed to get 12.4% off a brand new LCI, DCT (wanted a manual), HK, privacy glass and heated seats. Full tank of 98RON (not sure if I can check whether it really is 98RON) thrown in. Really good experience.

Cheers,

Phil

I'm trying to resist an auto for as long as possible. In fact I'd talked myself out of an M2 for a Golf R and only talked myself back into an M2 when VW discontinued performance manuals (for now). Think I set myself into a panic thinking I'd never get the car I want at that point! Probably to my detriment in the showroom.

My only concession was getting a black car (ideally wanted Grey). It has folding mirrors, heated seats, rear tints (not as obviously tinted as I feared thankfully) and HK.
