12% on list price and all options through broadspeed.com; same company that quotes TopGear magazine target prices. By the time you go through various phone calls (after a day or so of ringing) you end up speaking with a salesman from the Cooper BMW group based in the South East. Don't try ringing them direct as they will not give you the same discounts as going on line.

Service so far has been the best of any BM group I have dealt with including Sytner and Scotthall and they were also competetive on stand in price for the current car.......I will add the caveat though that the deal has yet to be completed therefore I can't give you the entire service picture.

They will be playing the 'facelift' card real soon... Although a ?1k to ?2k price hike seems like a good reason to negotiate!

Really good deals may be available on pre-facelift cars?

Got over 4k off list on my 520d M sport, the car was dealer stock and had to be registered last year.

Indeed. Go into a dealer now and ask for a discount on a post facelift model... ?4k probably won't be on the table

'Drive the deal' are quoting about ?5300 discount in his spec at the moment, if he picked up a stock or pre reg I can see how it could be achieved.
