Farewell BMW (sort of)

With the company car going back (being made redundant), I was looking at purchasing a 4 yr old MCS - went to look at them yesterday and came away owning a brand new JCW

With their 50:50 deal I paid the same for a new, very well specced car, with options at the end of 2 years, as I would for a used car. As it was in stock and they hadn't made their sales quota they made me an offer I couldn't refuse!

Pick it up next Wed, so I'm another E90post user that doesn't own an E90!

Forget Christmas, I can't wait until next week!

50:50 is 50% of cost up front, nothing to pay for 2 years. Then you can hand over the other 50%, use any equity on a new one, or hand the keys back - the usual PCP stuff.

Car is as follows:

Pepper White with Chilli Red roof and door mirrors and black bonnet stripes
Black 17" alloys
Chili Pack (Xenons, auto air con etc.)
Lounge leather interior in black championship (red piping), heated front
Chilli Red detailing inside
Full bluetooth/USB prep
Sun protection glass

Only things I didn't get, that were on my wish list, were power folding mirrors, and auto lights/wipers.

I had a play around on the Mini configurator the other day. They are lovely cars. And any time I've had one as a loaner I've really liked it. Usually just a bog standard One D too.
