I like the 613M wheels. 19s don't cut it in most places even though people insist on them.

Is it just me or is the finance on the LCI terrible?

All we need now is someone at BMW UK to upload the new July Pricelists and Brochures to the Website. They are all at January, PLs don't even list the newer 3 Series from March Like 320d X drive and 325d.

Bizarrely,
The initial quote I got back from a speculative order is £28pm more expensive than the final quote, with more options, which is unbelievable.... I am guessing they must see it’s re-sale value as higher at the end of the lease thus the lower overall price.

BMW 520d SE Auto (with gear change paddles.. no 'sports auto' for 520d SE)
Glacier Silver
High gloss shadow line
454 Multi spoke 17" wheels (I have to stick with 17" to keep the CO emissions below 120)
Folding mirrors
Black head lining
Sports steering wheel
Ambient lighting
Multi-function instrument display

The quote came in below £6k per year which with my allowance from my employer ends up with me only paying £150pm!!!
I should get it all confirmed today and then order for delivery on 27/10 when the Lease on my current F10 is up.

Brilliant news!!

Mine came in cheaper than the speculative quote too. If you are using alphabet (BMWs own leasing company) they will offer more support for things that will seriously help resale. Thus the extra cost for an auto over a MT is all but wiped out.

I tried with my Lease Manager... but being a public body with strict procurement rules, they had to use the three current providers. The £150 lease is with Ogilvie... they are the provider of my current F10, 520d auto, sapphire black and business media is all I have on it... but it is £214pm??

Ordered as above yesterday for 27th October, which is when my current lease runs out.

520d SE Auto

A bit of a compromise because of the emmissions cap. I think a Luxury or M-Sport would've been my unrestricted choice.

I was at my local dealership today, they showed me an LCI 530d M-Sport. It was a beauty. It was built in July and had the new controller. The touch surface isn't as large and as obscure looking as the picture suggests. One thing I would suggest is getting the side debadged as it looks horrendous with the m-sport logo underneath where the side indicators were.. Looks like a cheap ad-on. Also I'm not a fan of the new M-Sport steering wheel in the 5, in a 6 series it's good but not the 5. The changes on the exterior are extremely subtle, even with me looking at it... The exclusive stitching looks absolutely fantastic!
If like me you have a MY2013 there is nothing to worry about, in the looks department as it isnt a major change.
