Brand new, top of the range BMW 335d M-sport Xdrive Auto diesel for almost 25% (10k) off list price at broadspeed. 4 wheel drive 317 BHP twin turbo diesel model with a range of metallic colours available for no extra (including Estoril Blue - the colour of my choice), and dakota leather.....excellent spec.
A quick look on Autotrader reveals 1 year old 335d's going for similar money to this. Seems like a good deal, thinking about going for this myself, seems a good alternative to leasing as these are usually around £10k to lease for a 2 year term.....so if I sell after a year of use and not lose anything that would be awesome!
-2016 model aswell
First time poster so apologies if I have missed anything.

Indicators are fitted, they can be operated by the big knob inside.

In my experiece, as many Corsa's, Punto's, Fiesta's and Yaris's fail to use indicators as BMW's and Audi's. The higher end cars just seem to bring out the jealousy in people in discussion forums.
It's similar to being cut off by as many normal cars as taxi's but people remember the taxi drivers quicker because they're easier to stereotype.

Think you'll find normal people drive BMW's now....Audi's are now the current car of choice for the 'no indicators' and magnetic front bumper brigade...

For road use this is all the performance you'll ever need. Seriously rapid cars. The auto gearbox is a joy on these and in Estoril Blue they look the business, though for something a little more subtle they do a nice metallic grey as well.
I'd be ticking the M Sport Plus pack and adaptive suspension (n.b. on the X drive cars they don't come with M sport suspension, as the 4WD mechanism raises the ride height or something like that, thus you get normal suspension, that's why adaptive suspension is an absolute must apparently!) as the minimum on this if I weren't moving house soon.
The price discount, which is common on cars costing that sort of money, is exactly why when looking at lease deals people should consider the real cost to buy vs the leasing costs, not the RRP, as only fools pay the RRP nowadays.
As a BMW owner myself I take some pleasure in letting folks out of junctions and always indicating. The worst drivers on the road for me though are probably those in company motors, like Insignias and Passats (obviously that's just my opinion though).

There are, but there is a defeat device fitted so that they're automatically disabled when the car is driven on a real road.

I doubt if BMW have made such a pig’s ear of it as VW, but whatever they've done, their diesel engines will still pump out noxious chemicals that harm human health.

This feature is not available on BMWs unless someone discovers it.

Oh dear, I guess they aren't selling very well.

Good price but, you'll need to add around £5k of extras to get this up to a decent spec. Once you've done that just go to the BMW used car website and you're likely to find a similar car with a few miles on for around 15% less

Car comes with :-
Climate control
Full electrics
Full leather sports seats
Metallic paint
Media / Satnav Pack
You could probably spend £2,000-£2,500 on niceties if you wanted to, still makes it a cheap car.
Cheapest 2015 low miles car with a decent spec is around £32,000 on approved used site

So, sorry, you're wrong.
