On AUC website, Spotted a mega spec e92 335d SE at local dealer, due in a week. Had the chat, asked for a test drive as soon as it landed. Saleman just called me back, some bugger just put a deposit on it. If its you, thank you very much for saving me some cash!

Enjoy the car...

You have to move quickly that in todays internet world I'm afraid.

I've been in talks over a massively specced X3 which is 'coming soon'. Can't quite get the figures to stack up but I suppose why would a dealer try all that hard then he could sell the car many times over at a better profit than he'd get from me.

Occassionally the timing works in your favour though. Fate.

talking about massive spec.....went to BMW Park Lane to pick up a part for the E90 and popped into the Mini showroom next door. Saw a gorgeous Cooper S works.....standard OTR price was £15,999 (If I remember correctly) but this one was so specced up that it came to a whopping £50k!!!!!

Must have ticked the 'gold bar in glove box' option

I wonder if, having paid for my car outright...

I could sell it to a dealer, buy a car from them on an attractive finance option, and effectively work it so that I made money...

Essentially getting cash for my car, then placing enough money back as a deposit to effectively loan myself my own money, at a more favourable rate than I would currently pay in depreciation...

Or something, like for example get myself a nice new car with the newer Idrive etc...

Does that make any sense? Where is a clever maths person?
