Pull Forward Request on Order - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Gareth · 10-19-2012, 01:01 PM

Hi All,

My dealer has put a 'pull forward request' on my order - does it actually mean anything these days?

It wasn't at my request - they are very keen to get my part-ex off me as they have given me a great price for it and I'll be away on vacation shortly after the delivery date so they will have to wait even longer.

If it helps it is a 320D M Sport in Silver with some options.

Can't wait for delivery!

I had the same, I was originally told it would miss the Christmas shutdown so would be built in early Jan, then following a pull forward request it should be delivered to the dealer week commencing 26th November. Perfect for me as my current car goes back soon but I didn't request it.

Mine was pulled without a request from me too. ETA was 03/01 now early December, so about 4 or 5 weeks.

I put it down to them wanting to hit their targets for this quarter!

Perhaps....I think a fair few deals do get cancelled in the 3 or so months, so most cars come in early unless there are parts shortages on the spec you want.

Glad mine has come forward, as you never know what the finance deal would have been in Jan. I did lock it in at this years rate

I know you ordered yours in Q3 but the current Q4 offers (which are the same APR as Q3) state for registrations up to the 31st March.

Ah, OK cool. I was also worried there might have been a price increase on the lovely 330D
