Time to update the lease vehicle i salary package through work and am looking at a 3 series BMW. Having previously done this through Ford, Holden and Toyota by simply chasing up national fleet pricing myself from dealers i am unsure hoe BMW operate.

1) Are fleet discounts given? My salary packaging company is Selectus
2) Who can you recommend as far as dealers/sales reps go
3) I'm looking a 3 year / 25,000 km per year deal. Fully maintained deal, can anyone share some monthly payments on similar deals.

Cheers

Just go to your local dealer and they will quote you pricing per the BMW corporate Programme. This pretty much takes all the negotiation out of process. "EPP" I think is the BMW term.

As far as getting a fully maintained deal, that will depend on your leasing company but generally speaking, the maintainance costs are very low in the first two years.

Good luck and I'm sure you will be happy moving into a BMW.

If your able to be flexible with your packaging company give Autopia a call on 8307 5588. Jeff Morton is the main man and he is well linked with the corporate sales people at BMW Sydney so can get some sweet deals. Tell him WOPALX referred you.

Not sure how selectus do it, i know last time it was through DPOA (diplomatic priveledges of australia). Thanks for the heads up on the corporate program, gives me something to go with.

In terms of dealers, would definitely recommend Steve Manzi at BMW Sydney.

Also, why a 320i? Have you driven a 320d? We found the 320d to be a much better drive around the suburbs of Sydney, particularly the eastern suburbs given the number of hills etc...

I found the team at Sylvania BMW absolutely fantastic - not only the best deal but extremely friendly, efficient and helpful. Also worked really well as a team, covering for one another if needed.
