Well no, obviously not. It would be the equivilent of them giving me a good PX price to buy a brand new E92. I'd chuckle and leave the showroom as nobody sane would buy a brand new E92 now

It's like you want BMW to go out of business.

Girlfriends next door neighbor has just (well, within the last 3 months) bought a brand new E93 320d

I can top that, my dad bought a brand new e92 estate (or whatever the e number is) 318d 6 months ago. It was a decent price though

I don't get why everything has to be about BMW whenever I reply to anything you post :confused:

Lovely car! I like RS Megans when there in the right colours.

Blackhawk! Your back

I have been bored not seeing you and your A1 rants

They've offered £15k to make the TT sound appealing - it's now an end of life car due replacement. It makes the deal sound good if you think you are getting loads for yours, in reality they are simply flogging you a nearly discontinued car at list and using that to inflate the PX price.

This.

Similar age/mileage examples start from £13k on AutoTrader, so the £15k PX price (2-3k over the odds it would seem) will likely be in lieu of the expected discount of a brand new car approaching EOL.

I guess it doesn't hurt to feed customers the illusion that residual values are remarkably strong when trying to convince them to plump for something twice the price (and multiple times the depreciation risk in monetary terms).

Nice A1. Been missing your daily picture updates Mr Blackhawk.

Blackhawk you should really get rid of the dealer branded plate on the back, irritates me so much when people spend a small fortune on a nice car then ruin it with a stupid thing like that.

True dat. I need some fresh plates for my car.

Tempted to take a dremel to mine then re-seal the edge with clear nail varnish.

Some people just aren't arsed about branded plates...like myself.

Don't think I've changed any plates on the cars I've had.

every time i get a car i get some plain plates for it. no GB logo, no other text than the reg.

In my opinion, a fresh set of plain plates makes any car look a lot cleaner.

paradigm · 13 Dec 2012 at 10:24

Would never ditch the GB logo, don't want any stuck on tat when I go abroad.

Sorry if this is a dim question but in that shot with the boot open.. Are those tail lights inside the boot shut? What purpose do they serve? I had an Insignia Estate hire car once that had them too.
