If it's from a dealer, and has lots of extras, and more importantly if you love it, no problem!

The rate is dependent on where you got the loan from - was this directly from the dealer?

Rates also depend on personal circumstances, the bank of england rate is high currently so you would be good to get a rate below 7%.

I ordered a Clubman last week and the letter that arrived this week stated that the showroom are getting delivery of it on 24 December and then they have to prepare it, so I could get it between Christmas and New Year but I reckon the first week of January now. I can't wait, so waiting until 1st March would kill me .
