I think it's about right, the standard spec seems really high and they'll potentially be discounts available. Be interesting to see what the predicted residual figures look like

But the fact its over £40k to begin with means that there is a load on tax for the first five years

That may be a deal breaker for some. Although I would have been amazed if it would have been under £40K for the top model. The M was more than that 12 years ago.

Costs aside... one thing bugging me, as soon as you add on the 19” wheels to M Sport models, you automatically get the M Sport Plus Package (£1950) which includes Individual high-gloss Shadow Line... so you lose the chrome grill surrounds...

I just want the 19” wheels, I don’t want to change the grill at the same time... :headbang:
