Volvo and BMW are just two car makers that told their dealer network
'don't discount your cars, you don't need to in the UK'.


The only time a dealer gets away without offering a discount is where
demand exceeds supply. This might be occasionally the case with some BMW
and Volvo models - but certainly isn't the case with them all.



Back at the time I'm referring to 'Personal Import' was the thing to do (if
you could be arsed) - ISTR it was possible to save over 3,000 quid on a
mid-range BMW going this route.
