Looking at replacing my P1 with a M3, along it seems with everyone else!
Any comments on the relative pro's and cons of going the import route. By using a broker, the savings seem to be 8% or 9% with a shorter leadtime.
Any comments or useful contacts gratefully received

Resale value will suffer as the UK Dealers will know you got the car abroad and make "allowances" for this; i.e offer you a lower offer.
Get RIght hand Drive, Get the car in full UK Spec - Get this in writing (BMW Can do it cos they sell UK SPec cars to UK Forces at a discount.) Once you have it in writing you can then use that to barter when you come to sell it.
Nice motor btw.
