...but it is not a disaster. Germany has already signalled they they are in bed with the UK and would lose over 1m jobs if issues were to arise because of access to trade - that's a brexit thing. My point is that the euro has recovered slightly since the initial knee jerk loses and it would have to down over a sustained amount of time in order for any manufacturer to alter prices as it would cost them millions to do so (brochures, website changes, confirmed/unconfirmed orders, supplier chain negotiations etc to name but the obvious ones). Let's not foget that the money doesn't flow directly from my bank account to BMW HQ in Germany either.
As such, my point is that currency fluctuates anyway and will likely drop again when the UK either issues article 50, or at some point during the 2 years we are agreeing our terms with the EU. Car prices are not directly tracked on the exchange rate which is why we do not very often see the sticker price change.
Car makers do not just amend prices on a whim...
