    I would hunt round BMW AUC (approved used cars) looking for a dealer willing to do a deal you like.You can search for AUC cars at bmw.co.uk.

    Adrian, is this just their general BMW site? Just the usual haggling then?

    If the auctioneer spots Jo Public then he will play games and see how far he can bid you - as all the auctioneers know all the regular faces. It's fun watching... lol.

    http://www.bmw.co.uk/bmwuk/homepage/ then "Find and approved used car" and National search.
    Sytner group often come up with the better deals (now owned by BMW UK).
    Prices have firmed up so it will be harder to get a big discount. Leading performance and low emmissions (i.e. fuel efficient - efficient dynamics) across the range are attracting buyers.
