Mojave is the same as Havana,have it on my 520d SE Touring.
The other broker with a very good reputation is Drivethedeal. They put you in touch with best dealer's price.Honest John in Telegraph often recommends them. |

I got the Sophisto grey. I saw the colour thread here and fell in love with it. Saw one drive past the other (sunny) day and nearly tripped over. Gorgeous!!
Nice to hear the other users love it too and felt they made the right choice (for them). Delivery is around mid-April. Counting down now.... |

5er,have taken several pics on wife's quite good digital SLR,but er, not sure how to attach to reply,dinosaur i know,will get help from kids asap.
Had Deep Sea Blue on previous E61 and would have gone for that again but Senior Management had other ideas! Quite like it,positives are; it's virtually unique,when clean it's got a lovely greyish tint,but negative is that it's basically brown and of, shall i say, limited positive effect on resale value! |

No probs James. After doing a lot of research and visiting a dealer, I've settled on Sophisto.
My friend has a Z4 with havana, and I love it. Still like to see the pics though when you get a moment. My next quandry is getting the Anthracite wood trim. I think I'll have to do it. The car so far has all the aspects that I want, except for the trim. Aaaargh!! Well, it's only money!!! |

Anyway, I also played the Broadcourt card (like Shake N Bake) to negotiate with Sytner guys and got them to closely match the price. Delivery in end March, all going well. Last edited by SpawneyGet; 02-16-2011 at 08:17 PM.. |

I found that Broadspeed promised a lot, but then the other dealers in the Inchcape group wouldn't supply them with a car/slot. Or at least that's what they said.
So, I took their offer and went to another dealer group, who matched Broadspeed's price. |

Fortunately my local dealer group (Colchester) is Coopers and they are part of the Inchcape group. As a result I was able to use the Broadspeed tactic very effectively and got it for the Broadspeed price with some freebies thrown in as well. I did the same with my last car, a VW Passat, and amanged to knock them down to match the price. It's an invaluable tool now especially if the dealership is part of the Inchcape group or any other group that similar companies use.
