A review of the Gti shows it takes 7(?) finger jabs of the screen to access suspension settings!!  :🤔

Only if you have DCC.... the 128TI solves that problem by not even letting you have DCC  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

PCP deals showing £3100+ deposit contribution and 2.9% already.

Thats my 'local' dealer and thats the contribution and rate I've been given  :smiley:

Had a sit in a 1 series today - its a very very nice place to be.  Pictures don't do it justice, the quality is easily up there if not better than my S4 and knocks VW into a cocked hat.  Only trouble is its made me want the proper digital dash which is another 1k.  Will have to wait and see what VW come back with regarding financing before making a decision, but seeing a '1' in the flesh hasn't made the decision easier.

When the full bmw discounts kick in that’s going to be insanely cheap for what it is. I really like the look of the Mk8 Clubsport but the 128 is hard to ignore.

What kind of discounts are people expecting on the 1 Series then? From looking around the web they don't really seem any greater than DTD are offering on the GTi. Admittedly the PCP % rate looks better.

Yeah, about the same - whether you can negotiate more is another matter.

My cousin has always had BMWs and it’s like shooting fish in a barrel. I think 4-5k will be achievable at some point.

I got circa £6600 off my M135i, pre covid admittedly. I think there are some good discounts achievable on BMWs. In my case I got them to match the best Carwow deal I was offered at the time.

I reckon you’ll see £4k off a base car.
