Buying a BMW import car in Italy is not as easy as it seems. There are many well-known sites which, unfortunately, do not necessarily update their advertisements. Once a vehicle is located, many checks and adBMWstrative steps must be taken. Unless you are a professional and speak Italian through your BMW agent in Italy, it is better to contact a specialised agency.

Importing a car from Italy through an agency gives you the assurance of being in compliance with the Italian adBMWstration. Your purchase is secure and the repatriation of the vehicle is organised by BMW Italy. This saves you the hassle of finding an insurance company willing to accept the vehicle with foreign number plates. A car imported into France must not be pledged, and must be issued with a provisional registration, which attests to the validity of the sale. Many cars in Italy are bought on a "leasing" basis, a kind of hire with an option to buy. Once the agreement has been reached in Italy, you can block the vehicle by paying a deposit, and give yourself a cooling-off period. Using an agency saves you time in organising your journey and repatriating the vehicle. It will also represent you in the event of a dispute with the seller and handle any negotiations for BMW Car Import Italy.

Many people have noticed through sites such as Subito.it, Secondmano.it, Autoscout24 or Automobile.fr that the offers from Italian sellers are considerably cheaper than in France. These price differences can sometimes translate into 20 or even 25% less than the French market price.

There are several reasons for this, to begin with Italians are big consumers of Premium brands in terms of cars, image is very important to them and they buy much more easily and regularly than the French.

New vehicles are cheaper in Italy, and Italians do not hesitate to buy by leasing (rental contract with purchase option). This gives them easier access to vehicles that match their requirements and their portfolios since leasing is also a type of credit through your BMW car dealer in Italy.

In order to sell more quickly among this crowd of offers, the Italians practice low prices for these second hand BMW Italy cars.

These are the reasons that make the used car market in Italy France one of the most interesting in Europe.
