UK Orders
Anybody in UK got a car on order and when will it arrive.

Surprised that you can get over 10% off already on carwow, have been pricing up a new X5 which is already here and can only get 2.4% off, lots of issues with the new X5 on their forum.

I’m exploring the possibility of ordering a rhd for delivery in Nairobi, and I’m being offered dip discount of 15-20% off a starting price of 60k...not that surprising I guess.

I would say very surprising for a new model.

I would imagine if you are getting a brand new GLE at 20% discount, chances are it was stolen and stuffed in a container to be shipped to Africa. Let’s be real here.

i mentioned the program and where.

Im pretty sure if I order from Mercedes directly it’s not going to be stolen.

I'm sorry, I really don't mean to be rude, but I don't see your reference, I also have never heard of a manufacturer offering a 20% discount on a new model being launched. Not even Chrysler does that with its brands.

It’s the Mercedes diplomatic programme. It offers a blanket 15/20% discount off of a euro price.

Interesting, I thought "dip" was a mispelling for "deep".
