Hi

Thinking about making the move to a new 530i Sport (preferably one with the tweaked and lightened engine).

I've got a number of extras I want to get put on it, and the grand total will come to around ?40k

My question is: Does anyone in the UK buy into the BMW personal contract scheme? And if so, roughly how much am I looking at here a month?

Thanks,

TC

Fanx, nice place you have here the E60 took a while to grow on me but I think I'm doing the right thing (also have an E39 M5).

I know the 6-cylinder unit is sublime but I think I would be inclined towards the 535d. Not sure what the price is in the UK. I reckon it could just about be the ultimate Q-car.

Hi TMC, I have my car on a PCP, though not BMW's own offering.

I pay approx ?590/month over 4 years, ?3,000 downpayment iirc. Balloon payment about ?16,500.

List price was ~?42,000. Car tax is included in that fee.
