My Updated Spec..

Y2AJ · 01-04-2016, 03:02 PM

First of all, thank you to all the people that responded to my earlier post today. I have made a few changes thanks to you guys and have my updated final spec. I unfortunately can't find another £510 for the Adaptive suspension and considering I spend most of mornings and evenings in London stuck in traffic, I doubt I could fully utilise and appreciate the difference the adaptive suspension would make. Please let me know what u think of my updated spec.
Many thanks for your help.

So what kind of deal did you get eventually?

Deposit put down and effective monthlies?

I am looking to order again really soon and keen to see the discounts and deals others are achieving ?

Any info appreciated.

How come there is £680 extra to be paid on a 'supplementary invoice'?

GBR1 · 01-04-2016, 03:17 PM

What's the special allowance, I have never seen that before??

Great speck by the way!!

If you spend most of your time stuck in London, why have you gone for X drive?

330d s drive is best in my opinion.

Special allowance is normally dealer speak for 'discount'.

Great spec, I think adaptive LEDs are amazing, I appreciate we all have to draw the line somewhere though.

They're giving me £12500 for my 2012 320D. I'm putting in £8800. £300pm over 4 years. No balloon. The cars mine at the end of the 4 years. I hope that helps....

As I added the enhanced Bluetooth and reversing camera after the finance had been agreed, I said I would pay that separately. Came to £680.

Nice that you get the car after 4 years with only £300 a month to pay.

I've always wanted a 4wd. When it got icy here a year ago I struggled a bit. So decided to go for the upgrade

Yeah that was my max budget I wanted to spend. Hence the hefty deposit

Nice

Chris93 · 01-04-2016, 03:48 PM

The spec looks very nice, If it was me i would ditch xdrive and spend it on options as for the few weeks of the year when it is icy it is great but the rest of the year you do 10% less mpg but aside from that looks great!

He doesn't only have £300pm to pay, he's also paying a £21,300 deposit!

That's true. Wished I could've specced a car like yours Teaston. U built a solid car. But it was way out of my budget. What do you think of my poor man's BMW?

dubdemand · 01-04-2016, 04:29 PM

I thought that with current discounts the 335d worked out cheeper than a 330d s drive let alone a x drive! Great spec and I hope it's worked out at less than the best 335d deal for you!

Am I missing something? £39500 - £21300 is £18200. £18200 over 47 months is £387/mth and thats without interest.

Lol, yours is far from poor mans!

No matter what you get there's always someone on here with better though, I wanted the full individual interior, surround cams & adaptive headlights, but they added another £3k!

Yes you're missing the discount.

The dealer is also contributing £4750.

Beancounter_74 · 01-04-2016, 04:33 PM

There's a bit of a shortfall there based on those numbers:
12,500
8,800
14,400 (48 X 300)
That little lot comes to Â£35,700, yet the invoice without any interest is Â£39k

:

Ah, just seen the bit about the additional dealer support

Nice spec car anyway
