That is not a bad cost, my M depreciated that as well in less time and from a lower starting point  :'(

I pretty sure I got the right deal at the right time.

Lots of chat on PH about these deals but I've not seen one better.

Bear in mind I also bought Mrs M a new car, that may have helped?

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

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.

Tbh that actually is quite a good deal.

I know Kav bought his for low £50's which is only less than a year old and some sub 10k mileage so the depreciation is mahoosive.
