FANCY a different, more flexible way of using a vehicle? Don’t need a business car all the time?
Then check this out: BMW Group has just launched a new way to access its BMW and MINI models with a monthly all-in subscription.
It really is pay as you go motoring. BMW Group says there is no long-term commitment.
It’s like all-inclusive car leasing, but without any long-term commitment.
So you will be able to drive vehicles such as the MINI Hatch or BMW 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 Series, as well as X and i models, for one all-inclusive monthly subscription price.
Pricing for a MINI Cooper Hatch 3dr starts at £562 for a monthly ownership option; a BMW 116 Sport is £778. In contrast one month of BMW 520d Saloon ownership is £1,076.
The BMW Group subscription service is run by car subscription provider Drover. And it rolls the entire cost of car ownership into one monthly price. This includes:
- the cost of the car,
- insurance,
- maintenance,
- servicing,
- taxes and
- breakdown cover.
If you fancy the idea, check out the service at https://www.joindrover.com/bmw-mini.
The portal can be used for users to swap, upgrade or downgrade their car monthly cost or just cancel altogether, without any long-term commitment or steep upfront down-payments.
Chris Brownridge, BMW Sales Director, said:
“New, creative solutions allow the chance for car users to experience BMW or MINI ownership for as long or as little as they require.
“BMW Group is at the forefront of such development and we are excited to announce a partnership with Drover, the car subscription platform. Through its new subscription model we are able to provide an even wider range of ways to access BMW and MINI vehicles for retail buyers to suit their changing requirements.”
Drover was launched in January 2016, and has handled tens of thousands of vehicle bookings since and has been serially backed by Version One, Forward Partners, Cherry Ventures, Partech and BP Ventures.
