Enquire on a new Ford FocusBMW 7 Series
Though this next offer might only be for those with deeper pockets, the more money you have to spend, the bigger the discounts can get. That’s certainly true for BMW’s flagship 7 Series, which offers outstanding luxury and refinement, while the plug-in hybrid 745e model seen here can also travel on electric for up to 36 miles.
So if you like a good deal, you’ll love the deposit contribution BMW is currently offering – a huge £21,793.06, which is more than plenty of new cars cost in total. Combined with a low 2.9 per cent APR rate, it means this BMW isn’t actually quite as expensive as you might expect it to be – available from £799 per month.
