BMW Deals & Offers

Sounds like you are counting the cars you clean for a person outside his office pal ...... it is surprisingly shocking that none of the mentioned motors had a single bmw ........stop trolling a 24hr bmw test drive deal if you had zero experience dealing with a bmw dealer since you wouldn't know anything about it and your not so kind words won't be credible enough just like your very self. Good luck dreaming.

Because theres a dis-junct between BMW UK and the dealer network. BMW UK think its a really neat idea to offer 24hr test drives whereas the dealer network believe its naff and actively try to avoid it / refuse to do it.

I got all that. Still can’t see the point of advertise 24 hrs test drive and then offering ppl a „spin”

Not so bad now - the real w@nkers have moved on to Audi.

The reality is - statistically very few people who do nothing other than phone up and arrange a 24 hr test drive and then hand the car back actually buy one on that basis alone, so you're very unlikely to convert them in to a sale. Maybe the odd one, but nowhere near enough to warrant the effort. Its like going fishing with a rifle - you're aiming blind and just hoping to hit something and you're wasting an awful lot of effort And frankly you will get a load of dreamers (aeykeay for example) and dolts with big ideas and no money who just waste the dealers time and money.

Thanks ordered! Got it for £22 :) Used £8.5 from topcashback and had £5 applied at checkout thanks to Amazon Assistant (Install on your browser (google chrome) to get an additional £5 off £25 purchase when searching via the assistant)

This went hot when I posted it at £34.99! Good price - heat added.

I'm surprised this has gone cold...price looks ok.

Booked the M2 over a week ago, had 2 calls and an email to confirm this. Showed up today at Peter Vardy Edinburgh and the guy tells me they don't have a car for me to test drive. But if I want to buy it today he can take all my details.. What a waste of time..

They shouldn't be allowed to advertise the 24 hour test drive unless at least most of their dealerships offer it.

Really disappointed with BMW. So after registering for my interest in the 24 hour test drive on their website, got a call from the local branch within 30 minutes to arrange a test drive for me this week. I recieved a miss call from the head office customer support, I called back the local branch to make sure everything was going as planned and spoke to the chap who originally called me said he wasn't aware it was the 24 hour test drive I was after despite registering my interest. He said he would double check in another branch whether they have a registered vehicle available for the test drive and come back to me by this afternoon. I believe that would just be a swift fob off response to me. This has really put me off, I was genuinely looking at the 3 series for my next car within the new few months.

if they have an x6 or m5 then sure ill test drive (cheeky)

No thats the driver mate hahah iv driven loads bmws they are straight and true

Hey, would appreciate a heads up on this as its the only thing holding me back (y)

Am I the only one who read this (admittedly now old) post as Hot u knob?

Hmm I need to speak to your accountant who do you use. Mine has advised me plenty of times that it would be difficult for most people to claim only business use for cars. Especially this car..unless your a driving instructor

There are similar deals going on this for PCH (not business). The criteria from Alphabet (the financier, owned by BMW) is a ballache; 1. Get a Company Car allowance (NOT a mileage allowance) 2. Own a company 3. Send them a copy of your employment contract showing that you get (1) Loophole is available ;)

You have to be using it solely for business use. For example sales reps going to different places. One place of work wouldn't count as business use - it's commuting.

Bluechillicars seem to be advertising the OP link for a little less too at £6499 over term when adding upfront and £360 fee. Screenshot below. And NO I don’t work for these. Just spoke with them last week string up my deal.

Not sure about any new versions coming out. Seems to be that the best deals are pre reg. the dealers listing these had to make their quota for this quarter. Hence pre reg. all at BMW dealers. Doesn’t really bother us as it’s still a new car which we’d be pleased with. It was just the right car for our budget. We tend to set a budget first then see what cars fit. Then narrow down the selection to finally make a choice. We were after an automatic convertible with leather for up to £240 p/m and for these specifications Nothing else came in budget so it suited. When I called bluechillicars last week they had a few manual convertible m sport versions in white left as in screenshot below Hope this helps and there are a few left

Cannot find deal on website, got a screenshot? Has it expired?

Does it have anything to do with a FWD version coming soon? I have no idea but i think that’s true for 1 series? (I know nothing about cars)

Cryptic???

If there was a dislike button (for the new spec, not your comment), I’d hit it. Less power than a Leon Cupra :( I blame brexit

It's being replaced by a 2/4WD Euro hatch with a boring 4 pot engine and only 300bhp though!! So this will be the last of the rip snorting 6 pot RWD hatches that you can buy and might actually mean current M140's will go up in value, eventually!! :D

Tried 3 dealers - no one could/would come close to this on pcp (which is also 4yrs not 3). Even old TRL was still about £450 more, again, plus 4yrs not 3. Personally, knowing this is being replaced this year, I don’t still fancy driving one in 4yrs. 3 is more than enough, then I’ll be ready for pipe & slippers and a Citroen Cactus.

There’s a few loopholes on the restrictions and they’re not bothered about policing them, they’ve simply been put in place to prevent everyone wanting PCH and no-one going to a showroom for a retail (PCP) deal.

Only on left hand drive variants. Blame brexit for that ;)

I think you will find that 5w30 is better for your car if you are in the UK (as it may not be the best if you are in a cold country) - I did lot's of research and decided 5 is better than 0. after many years of paying for castrol I have now started using cheap oils that meet the spec and change the oil more often (mines a diesel and the oil gets very black after a year)

I've used Halfords oil for a while now, yes it is supplied by Comma on the web page look where it says "additional information" (at the bottom of the Description tag) and click the safety data sheet link. Comma was part of Exon so its not some back street set up: http://www.commaoil.com/about/history Good price for this product.

Quote possibly not. People will believe anything to save a few quid. They did some tests years ago on so called budget priced premium oils, and they weren't as good. They found that many fully synthetic oils were actually 'based' on fully synthetic oil, they were in fact a derivative of fully synthetic, but not the same as. Many times they aren't engineered or tested to the same specification of true brand leaders like Castrol or Mobil. They did not have the same endurance or anti-sludging qualities of the premium branded oils. I don't personally know about Halfords own products and how they're engineered, but it's a big risk in my opinion unless you know who makes their oil. Some things like aftermarket spark plugs are actually identical parts to the OEM ones, so you're basically paying 3 or 4 times the amount for the OEM stamp, and nothing else (sometimes the same for oil filters, but not always).

I would double check spec as a lot of bmw are llo4 0 30.

I called O2.

Aww, this happened to me too. My itunes code said "$ITUNES_REDEEM_CODE". How did you sort it out?

I've used this deal and so has my wife. There was an issue with email delivery one month (the 3rd) but a call to O2 sorted it.

Have you used this deal? One guy was saying his 4th email (free month) had the code missing and he's having trouble receiving it.

One off. You could always get a PAYG sim, add credit and resubscribe with a different email address though I suppose.

Price gone up

Expired

As recommended by Which? :)

Thanks, ordered for my grandson (but I'm sure I'll enjoy helping him play with them). Heat added.

Cheers, Website is lying then, so best take a trip to a store if you can be bothered. They've only knocked off 10% anyway...

Tried to order 2 for presents but would only let me buy one, think it's o.o.s. now?

I've been after this very model and this is by far the cheapest price for it. Heat OP!

funny - it would not come up on any search I did for my car - I could not work out why it was not recommended as I have to use LL-04 (as I have a DPF and CAT), but during my research I did learn a little about SAPS - this one is mid SAPS -apparently more is better for the engine and stops engine wear but more is also bad for the DPF (this one has the same amount as Castrol Edge), so from what I found out low SAPS oil could wear the engine quicker - anyway given the choice I would rather replace the DPF than the engine

thanks heated and ordered - for all the compatibility questions just punch your reg into the euro car parts finder reg box and all suitable oils come up! This oil came up for my merc s320cdi - at this price its cheaper than the 1L bottles at the petrol stations - so just use as top up oil even if not compatible

Bought and built this a few months back. Well worth the few hours of entertainment. Looks and works very well. Nice share OP.

Back up to £42

Yeah still £55 in Lego shop, some places have it at £45 but this is a little better saving again

Bought this model a few weeks ago for £45. Well worth this price.

My son has this and it's a real head turner he loves it highly recommend :)

I cannot see the brakes on this BMW! Is it considered to be an optional extra thse days?

Do you need to do a DAS course to ride this or are you ok on just a CBT?

very nearly bought this last week for £179.99, sorted now at this price! Cheers OP

Love it, wish son was a couple of years younger... Sad face 😔

Impossible!

Good price , have too much technics

Bought....dam you Hotukdeals!

That list is out of date the XZ Premium has a higher pixel density at 807ppi. http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_xperia_xz_premium-8593.php That's the nature of technology.

The z5 premium smashes, maybe it's over kill. Yeah the iPhone 7 plus doesn't fair well comparing to higher end androids. Thanks for the link. Bought one just to have in case I jump ship or apple decide to move with the time.

These headsets tend to magnify the screen so the higher resolution the better.
