    I had a £900 BMW I bought on ebay; it lasted me three years and I sold it for £400.

    (I went to a BMW dealership and looked at an almost new one to replace it; they offered me £100 against their £25k car. I didn't buy, on the basis that they were taking the piddle.)
  • Unlikely. By the sounds of it you don't have any comparable finance experience (that they can see) and you have a recently settled ccj. Go for something less flashy
  • Ive had a similar experience and although I wasnt going for a BMW I got approved on an Audi A4. if you dont get approved on it feel free to give me a shout and i can pass you the dealer I used over a PM. not saying they will be any better but I know they did there best to get me the finance
