    I presume you started at 10% rather than 8%?
    Remember the time he ate my goldfish? And you lied and said I never had goldfish. Then why did I have the bowl Bart? Why did I have the bowl?
  • i started at 11%, dont know whether that was a good thing to do, can i push for more than 8?
  • Did you say you were after a 4.8 petrol X5?

    If yes then 15-20% would be a good starting point.

    you can push for whatever you want. try 15% and see what they say. I presume they rejected 11%, it's going to come down to how much they need to sell the car.

    Stating the obvious, but the percentage discount will depend on how realistically it is priced.

    Does it come with an "X5" numberplate?
