Bank loan?

Maccy · 18 Apr 2014 at 10:53

Think the bank would only loan me up to £20k with higher monthly payments, plus I don't think they'd give me as much discount.

You will get discount. Brokers can get you a new one for 27k plus options.

Hmmm ok. But I'd have I stump up a bigger deposit and have higher monthly payments.

But it costs you less overall. You are paying more money for those 'lower monthly payments'.

I just worked it out -

3 years total cost would be £36,564.40
5 years total cost would be £37,407.80

Why not get a second hand one for £25k? www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201403312947370/sort/default/usedcars/onesearchad/used%2Cnearlynew%2Cnew/postcode/st16xh/make/bmw/quantity-of-doors/5/keywords/135/model/1_series/radius/1500/page/1/maximum-age/up_to_1_year_old/advert-type/standard-listing?logcode=ucnnp

£10k+ is a staggering amount to lose after one year of ownership and 5,000 miles.

Alternatively spend £38,480 on this awesome 435i http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classif.../1/advert-type/standard-listing?logcode=ucbnp

I'm fussy on spec, that one above doesn't fit the criteria!

I only chose the cheapest, the <12 months advice still stands

You can obviously get a PCP deal on a used car, but you tend to get the best deals on new car as it's subsidised by the manufacturer.

Can't see any M135i cars for £23k.

There are 2 3 Door and 1 5 door on the AUC site all are just shy of 24k and have poverty spec and are manuals to get anything with a half decent spec your looking at nearer 26k.
