MK7 GTI vs M135i

[Bill_the_Bear]

I wouldn't worry about it.  It's the same physics that applies to all cars on the road.

Email arrived from the dealer.  Car is in production (which I knew) and expected delivery is week 39!

Edited my sig slightly to be less irritating, sorry.  Will have to wait until after work to change the pic though.

GTI cancelled today, M135i deal done, just finalising the spec/colours. I'm sad to say goodbye to the GTI but as others the whole experience has be soured beyond what I was prepared to put up with. Have secured a 19% discount on the M135i and the same trade in for my Golf that VW offered so it's costing me roughly the same as my GTI was costing.

Great forum guys keep up the good work, I'll still pop by every now and then to see your new cars etc.

Not happy with the people we're losing. Forum is going to be half empty and less knowledgeable

Nice one mate. Seems to be some brilliant deals for the 135. BMW are clearly pulling out all the stops to make sure they attract new business and satisfy their customers and fair play to them. Far better than VW that's for sure

My GOLF GTI gets built next week, who was it that said its good to be starting over again?

[Bill_the_Bear]

My M135i was built this week.  Delivery before end of September.  Can't wait!

Good second choice Bill, sorry it didn't work out with the GTI

[Bill_the_Bear]

Haha, it's first choice.  Didn't think I could afford it back in April but got a deal that makes it £1.5k cheaper than the GTI and much higher specification to boot.  Plus the 5 week lead time, no brainier.

I wish I could have had both but couldn't convince my wife to have the Golf so had to pick one of them.

Welcome back by the way!

Fair enough, you're not convincing me though (I won't mention the looks, sshhhh)

For the record I quit and was not sacked    Not that anyone may be interested 

Will take me a while to get back my stars though 

I'm sure you and you're BMW will make sweet music ( I wish there was a thumbs up thing on here as that is what I want to give you) 

In a  friendly way
