No M50i in uk

Edit, just checked and they are on sale. This is news to me. When was the M50i released to UK market?
Q4 2019. I have the G05 UK December 2019 price list which include M50i/d.

M50d I was aware of, but M50i seems to be very fresh. They definitely weren't available when I was ordering mine in September.

Very interesting

Just priced up a similarly specced car to mine in M50i.
£90700 ... wonder what discount I could get, and what trade-in they'd offer me :-)

<starts pondering>

It was announced back in May 2019 with UK pricing TBD and launch in late 2019.

Best I can get is 23% off each vehicle. The difference between each model and total price without discount is around 2k. So hence my dilemma. Might look at the 50d as previously discussed, might be worth the Venture.
Hi just starting to negotiate on M30d in UK. 23% sounds interesting is that local Manchester Dealer.? Also is it 23% of base vehicle price or 23% of total including options.. Any info would be appreciated

M50d - that engine is a spectacular match for the G05 chassis.

23% would be on whole car including options. Thats a very good discount. I got 17% on a 30d in September (albeit on a lower APR so total price paid including finance would reflect a bigger discount when compared)

There is absolutely no news about a 40d G05 coming or the M50d being dropped.

That article is pure speculation

That configurator seems to be the only one in Europe that has a 40d in an X5 - it also suggests mild hybrid tech on that engine, which (as far as i know) no B57 has as of yet.

In any event, there wont be a 40d in the UK for some time if at all. It is more likely that they will bring the 25d and the 30i into the lineup

I agree. It's gonna take awhile for 40d to be available. But at least we have a "confirmation" of the rumor, and it sits between 30d and M50d in terms of pricing.

Looks like multiple diesel variants will coexist for some time

here is another "confirmation" of 40d - production staring in March 2020:

Just discussed the issue with a so called BMW genius and he said that the M50d was actually already out of production for four months during the "dieselgate". Then they decided to change the engine a bit, add a turbo and some other stuff to make it "cleaner" and reintroduced it again.

It may be that it will be discontinued for some markets where the green taxation drives the sale numbers down, but the engine itself is apparently not saying goodbye just yet.
