If you are talking about me I'll worry about a grown ups car when I am grown up(not even 40 yet!) unlike the retired gents DB9!

That's DB9.2, Perry.  Bit of a difference even for us old duffers.

I also got rid of my 'pub talk figure performance but knackered in 2 years' cars when I was in my 30s.  Late 20s actually.

Just building up for a complete mid life soft top crisis next May ;-)

Always the GT3 to fall back on after that if I have any Bee Gees left in me by then.

Huge congrats on the new arrivals to be.

The M is a stunning motor to drive and power delivery is just epic.

Interested to know what would be classed as 'giving them away' LOL
[/quote]

On a 36 month lease (based on 12k per annum) it's working out at £650 per month to include RFL. It actually worked out no more expensive or cheaper to have it on a 24c month lease, but I'm of the opinion these deals simply won't be around in 24 months time (or probably 36 months time) and I suspect I'll be happy with an M5 on the drive for 3 years!

Also had the first 1200 mile service thrown in FOC.

I understand I'm giving it back after 36 months with nothing to show, but believe me I'd lose more in depreciation than I'm paying over that period of time. Having also had quite a few reasonably expensive cars over the last few years I'm more than aware you lose huge amounts of money on them all, perhaps this may be the way to go?

I understand not only from the web but also my dealer BMW have been keen to get these cars on the road and are literally throwing money at deals. I've also read (on PH so maybe not too reliable) that these deals are history immanently, order books are now full and they've succeeded in their aim to get them out and about.
