My only concession was getting a black car (ideally wanted Grey). It has folding mirrors, heated seats, rear tints (not as obviously tinted as I feared thankfully) and HK.
Don’t over look the DCT! I was anti-auto but having driven one I was more than happy to buy one!

Hi, Would you mind sharing which dealer you got your deal from? I'm not having much luck yet.

Regards

Would you mind sharing the details of your deal please, perhaps through a PM? I have just ordered my M2 through a Lloyd BMW dealership (in Colne) and would like to ask them to match your level of discount given the garages are in the same group.

Cheers,

Phil

Ended up buying from Boston. I think he had a call or two from people who read this thread too. Not sure if they ended up as sales, he said they were sold out everywhere now. Hard to know how much is salesman talk but I’ve ordered now so can’t see why he’d make it up.

I'm on the verge (DCT LBB with sunroof) subject to sorting out selling my current M2 (PCP coming to an end in next few months, want to take advantage of 2.9% offer over 48 mths). If I pull the trigger this one will be a keeper and will do some light mods - MPE, carbon interior bits, black grill & gills and possibly rear diffuser (thoughts?). In time I may upgrade suspension (AST 5100/5200) and brake set up. Currently looking at local used dealers to retail existing M2 as BMW dealer PX values not the best. Many thanks to DLT222, very helpful.

Ordered mine too

I ended up ordering mine from BMW Park Lane London - going to pick up on Saturday. Mineral Grey with nearly all the options.

It's apparently the end of the BMW financial quarter so dealers have stock to shift and targets to meet. That along with a surplus of M2's means there probably won't be a better time to buy one for a long time!

Most of the dealers i approached were willing to discount heavily on the PCP deals.

Pretty much all the options with DCT transmission.

Originally want MT...but I am really enjoying the DCT so far.

Pics to follow.

Thanks again to DLT222 for the help.
