[Doctor Gollum]

I can't wrap my head around the maths. Surely there's a price to pay somewhere 

[tunnie]

Officially, this i4 M60 on paper is a £75k car. Not that anyone pays that! BMW were offering 35% to Lex on the build slot, which explains why this was cheaper than a Tesla which had a list price of £50k on LEX monthlies.

I do wonder how BMW does the pricing on its lease cars sometimes. My iX is similar base price of c£75k (iX M60 is something like £115k  ), but the monthlies of Octopus can fluctuate by >£200 pcm. I managed to get it at a fairly low ebb, but I don't think I could have the same car again if my lease were coming to an end soon. 

I think BMW offer build slot discounts, when I called up to find out more they said no one really buys the "bonkers" model. They go mid range.

I specified a mid range eDrive 40 i4, with adaptive ride and few other bits. Came out £50/m less than the M60. So I thought why not!
