BMW and MINI announce new pricing across both brands

-

BMW Group Ireland has announced a price reduction across its BMW and MINI brands. The average price reduction is 5.1 per cent, representi­ng an average saving of €3,296 on new BMW models. Meanwhile for MINI, the average reduction is -3.9% or €850 across its range.

Paulo Alves, Managing Director BMW Group Ireland said: “The change in our pricing is designed to make it even more compelling for customers to stay in BMW’s Irish network and offset currency fluctuatio­ns. We are offering this decrease at a time when the industry is faced with increasing prices due to VRT changes announced in yesterday’s Budget and new EU legislatio­n with WLTP ( Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure).

Announced earlier this year, all BMW and MINI vehicles sold in Ireland are fully compliant with the new WLTP test regime legislatio­n which came into effect in September. This is a further step in ensuring customers have easy access and value when looking to buy a BMW or MINI model”.

In addition, MINI Ireland is announcing new simplified product offering for customers across its entire range. The new MINI range now offers three styles for each model; Classic, Sport and Exclusive. These changes are designed to make it easier to order a MINI in five simple steps. While maintainin­g MINI’s famous levels of customisat­ion, two new functional optional packs will be introduced; ‘Comfort Pack’ and the ‘Comfort Plus Pack’. These changes mean that additional standard equipment will be featured on all new MINI models including; interior ambient lighting, MINI logo projection from the driver door, automatic headlights and rain sensors.

BMW Ireland’s campaign for the 191 buying period will go live on Monday 15th October with all informatio­n available on www.DiscoverBM­W.ie.

BMW is also offering low APR’s on BMW Select (PCP) plans and also Hire Purchase contracts, for example the APR on BMW 1 Series and BMW 2 Series models is 1.9%. It couldn’t be a better time to look at a BMW model with the new BMW X5 due to make its Irish debut on the 1st of December or the new BMW 3 Series which is available to order now.
