Concours success for BMW 7 Series
BMW's unique Concours service package has proved to be a resounding success
with over 84 per cent of owners opting to take the package on purchase of the
car.
Concours is an entirely new, five-year, 75,000 mile service and maintenance
package for the new 7 Series. A one-off fee of £500 (a fraction of the retail
cost) will cover service and maintenance by BMW technicians, including engine
oil and filters, wiper blades, brake pads and discs, spark plugs, air filters,
microfilter, brake fluid and coolant.
When the car is sold, Concours passes to the new owner, which will help to
enhance residual values.
