F11 535D M Sport Touring Discount

I had a chat with a dealer about a factory order. The factory finishes producing F11's at end of Feb and there's only a handful of spec amendable factory orders available.

I am currently running a Sept 2013 F31 330d and pretty happy with it but will change if there's a decent deal available. The best offered to me was:-

List £59,208
Manufacturer's contribution £8500
Dealers contribution £7353
To Pay OTR £43,355

I make this 26.8% discount, so not as high as I was hoping.
What do you guys think to the deal? Any other recent experiences?

With a budget that large it must surely be worth waiting for the G31 order book to open later this month, even if it means dropping to a 530 instead of a 535.

I struggled to see the case for the F10 535d over the F10 530d, if it's F11 535d v G31 530d then there is surely no contest?

I would say 30% would be the max if you really pushed and the dealer wanted a quick sale.

For the best deals you might have to wait till production stops and then find a dealer who has bought an allocation and cannot sell them all as they will depreciate monthly and they will want to just get rid.

That's the gamble though, but as you have a high budget the ball is 100% in your court

Remember if you go down the PCP route the APR will be higher on a pre reg so make sure you get an unregistered car

I would wait for G31. Drivethedeal already offering 15% off 530d saloon and I would expect similar for the Touring.

15% off a G31 is definitely a better proposition than 27-30% off an F11.

I have a 535d at the moment but would have no hesitation in settling for a 530d in the new model.

I got more on my special order 29/30% on a 62K bwfore discount car.
That is not a bad offer remember though it will be worthless in 3 years time. Thats the down side.
