X6m50d

[snipez999]

Anyone ordered one yet?
I'm just sorting spec and prices with my dealer would be interesting to know what discount I could expect (and I will be expecting one!).

[Minda]

At a guess 10% plus would be good i think

[X5Sport]

Depends how well they think it's going to sell. Somewhere upwards of 6% minimum I would hope. Sometimes they will not play on a new model, but will throw in other goodies like GAP & Tyre Insurance plus a Service Pack. I only got about 4% off the 40d but got the rest thrown in. Plus a permanent 15% parts/accessories discount and the Winter Wheels at a very good price.

It depends upon how badly they want a deal, and how hard to get you want to be.

BMW have had a good time recently in terms of sales so there ought to be some wiggle room..

[snipez999]

There's always the broad speed quote to help guide things. With 17k on the clock the 40d should fetch a few bob p'ex as well. Trouble is my shopping list of bits is 16.5k (oops).

[X5Sport]

Mine was the same... the toy list is hard to resist..

I was offered £46k on a 2011 40d with 5,000 miles in December last year, but only after I laughed at their first offer, which was £40k. It's only got 6,700 on it now after my medical issues which have kept me off the road since then...

Do you really think they will offer discount on a 'premium'/specialist model which will presumably be limited numbers too

Also as per X5sport I would have thought p/ex will be a hit

Not trying hard enough on options - we are up to £18k on porker

[snipez999]

Here's not much I haven't got apart from leather dash which is a bit too Dynasty for me lol. Even speccing telly this time which is a new one for me. Broad speed are already offering 7% discount on pre orders.

[Minda]

Just done an online configration its about 10k for the extra turbo

[snipez999]

And 75bhp

[Minda]

[quote=""snipez999""]And 75bhp [/quote]

No i got it wrong its 1k for the turbo and 9k for all the M badge's

I think I'd rather spend that amount of money on an M5!

Not sure how much the leather dash is but someone ticked the option box on mine and i have to admit it really gives the car a top quality feel

[squeaky2]

Oh and if anyone is looking at the x5m50d can i give them my required options list

[snipez999]

Which for a long long time was my dream car. However, I prefer the higher driving position of the X6 and so changed my mind. The X6M would be fun, for a while, but at least with the 'd' I can hoon it and still get over 20mpg, day in day out. 0.4 secs on the 0-60 sprint is not too much and I'd catch up when they stopped to refuel
Residuals are better on the diesel as well.
But just to prove I haven't lost the plot completely, the long term Plan (next year is as long term as it gets with me LOL) is to get an M3 ragtop as a second/third car and stick it in the garage for the odd bout.

But isn't it you with an X6 and an X5 or am I getting confused with somebody else?

It surely isn't going to be 'loads' different to drive than your mrs' x5

I also think it will loose shed loads of money particularly with £16k of toys on it (and I know I'm one to talk!) but I just would have thought the variation would be more fun and the M5 at that price is comfortably specced
