Good if you are on leasing terms as terminal value is known in advance, but good luck selling one of these affected cars on the second-hand market. Buyers may know that cars produced before Sep 2020 could be affected and intervened, which may depress the resale value. IMHO |

Thanks Tommy, but looking at the Xline option, the price is way up to when we ordered back our M sport back in February! The X line base price is at €88195, the M sport base price we ordered was at €89,000, before delivery costs and options! Normally the M sport comes at an extra 5k on top of the X line, so it looks like the price is way up, add the fact our trading value if we re-order will be reduced since our 2017 40e will have another year and more miles on top, suddenly the option to re-order is just no longer attractive financially! our salesman is to come back with the figures.

We have a new tax system starting in 2021, we use to have rebates on hybrid cars for up to 7k back on the X5 45e, the new system limits the rebate only to cars priced below 40k.
With changes like this car manufacturers always adapt the prices and often drop models also hence I thought the M sport trim was dropped. In Ireland car tax is more like in Denmark and Finland, VAT like most countries with another tax on top called VRT, so for our existing February order, we paying €13,500 in VAT and €12,000 for VRT, a total of €25,500 in taxes, this is after the rebate due to expire this year. So venturing into a new order may cost us more, waiting for our dealer to comeback with the new figures, before making the call! Quote:

Update from dealer: The software is ready, tested and ready for distribution. Pilot project has showed good results. We are still unsure when the testing will start.
If you ask me, they are still where they were 6 weeks ago. |

I agree with you, not really anything new. I think I had read a similar quote from someone's dealer quite some time back.

It would be interesting to have an update from anyone from Belgium on the forum if there was any news as of this week? I guess the country is very much closed down so likely difficult to get hold of their dealers.

This is what I was hopping my dealer will confirm, what is missing is the BMW prices for 2021, I remember when I was moving to a new 5 series back in 2008 with the change from engine size to Co2 levels, BMW as expected issued a new prices.
For us is a question of how low is the new price so it will composite for more likely lower trad in value for our 40e. Thanks for the document your sent, very handy! Will let you know if our expectations materialise. Quote:

Anyone in Belgium considering inscribing their car in 2021?
It’s probably going to be pretty close anyway! My dealer told me their would be no tax implications, anyone else got news on this? I heard there is also the new 2- number plates being released at the beginning of the new year. |

Considering it ... but will still be paying it on 2020 for fiscal reasons (company car). It all depends on when it will be finally back from Testing Land. If I can get it beginning of December, I won’t wait.

I’m also buying it under my company. What’s the fiscal differences from registering in 20 or 21? I’m just thinking the resale value will possibly be better as it will be considered a year younger in 4 years. |

All, I take it there are zero progress updates received by anyone today from their dealer on the famous battery test process unfortunately in terms of any positive progress. Great if you can prove me wrong of course.

- Car is still at the dealer (so forget what they said about November 4th) - Car should be picked up for transport to Zeebrugge "sometime next week" - Car should be back at the dealer and ready for delivery by December 15th. Lot's of "should", I'm not holding my breath. IF (big if) I get the car on December 15th I will have waited exactly 11 months . |

I was in contact with my dealer today and he really wasn’t so happy! He told me they have been promised an update by BMW by early next week. My response was...promised an update means no movement is planned? To which I got no response. I got the impression there is a lot of frustration from the dealer side. Basically my car is still at the dealer and nothing has changed! To be honest I’m getting a bit done with the whole situation and starting to lose my enthusiasm for the car! |
