Bmw 320 D Or Benz 250 Cdi

[katabeachbum]

Thanks for the info - I'm buying in Aug. (don't know if used or new yet) but the list price for the sport is 2,9 mill. as far as I remember - so you paid 2,7 mill. than ?

Thanks again

The list is actually 2,999,000 and we paid 2,799,000 and they included the first years insurance..

I see Siamcanuck got the same deal.. and the same dealer.. so I am guessing that is not a very special price.. they told us they were trying to thin the invetory...

as bmw keep sending me offers with 25% down and 48 months interest free, it is for a cash purchaser at least 220.000 baht in interest discount in a 320d

Thanks for the info - I guess you live in Phuket (as I do) and it is Barcelone Phuket that send you these offers ?

I will chech them out as soon as I return home - not to forget the second hand ones should be possible to get a good deal there.

I originally went to Barcelona Chiang Mai where I received terrible service. I then went to Millenium Auto Rama IV where I got a much better deal but not a 200,000 baht

discount off my 320d M Sport.

I only got a 110,000 baht discount but I got a few other things included as well as the 1st years first class insurance.

Maybe I should have avoided any dealings with these guys until the payment was due. In other words send in a Thai to do the deal.

If I buy another one in the future looks like Millenium Lad Prao is the place.

Did you ever consider the Benz 250 Cdi ?

I haven't seen any used ones for sale on the common sales sites - It seems the BMW 3 diesel is selling better than the C-class diesel - or the Benz owners just don't put them up for sale just yet ?

Don't know If the 250 Cdi is sold with the new facelift by Official Mercedes, but it is an awsome car to look at.

The lack of navigation stopped me and that's why I went with the 320d. If the C250 CDI was the same spec as the C250 CGI, I would have gone that way probably.

Sounds terrible that the stereo turns itself up and down when the noise increases.

Both cars are very nice and the torque (500 nm) of the Benz sounds almost too good to be true.

This is a feature easily turned on / off with the iDrive.

500nm torque sounds interesting. Mine only has 450

They make money not just on the sales-price. They also get kickbacks from the interest. So I will guess while they were giving a huge sales-price discount, they increased the monthly down payment.
