Euro Motors, the exclusive importer of BMW cars in Bahrain, has signed an exclusive financing partnership with HSBC.

A broad range of varied financing options have been made available for the BMW 3 and 5 Series models to cater to diverse financial customer needs. This exclusive partnership means that HSBC will be the only bank to have representation based at the Euro Motors showroom in Sitra.

"This partnership brings together two global brands that have specialised in providing their customers with outstanding products and services," said Mike Ellenthorpe, BMW brand manager, Euro Motors.

"BMW is a well established and respected brand in Bahrain and our discerning customers expect a premium and exclusive service. The Bahraini market is entering into a new level of luxury vehicle ownership - as a result of the exceptional financing, cash payments or other financial services options that are available from banks like HSBC.

"Our partnership with HSBC, one of the world's premier financial institutions, will start with a financial services offer on two of our most popular models - the BMW 5 and 3 Series. Both models offer unrivalled performance and design and come with a Euro Motors exclusive package that includes a complimentary 5 year/100,000 km BMW service inclusive and warranty."

Mahmood Qannati, manager marketing at HSBC, added: "This partnership will help simplify the challenges assoicated with auto finance, as well as provide customers with preferential rates, enabling them to acquire a dream car quicker."

Under the terms of the agreement Euro Motors customers using HSBC's auto financing will be entitled to special monthly instalment rates starting at BHD 255 for the BMW 5-Series and BHD 242 for the BMW 3-Series (subject to bank's approval - terms and conditions apply).

This strategic alliance is expected to continue with similar deals on other BMW and Mini models once the current campaign around the new BMW 3-Series and BMW 5-Series comes to a close in August.

BMW enthusiasts can visit the Euro Motors showroom in Sitra in order to test drive the new BMW 3 and BMW 5 Series or call 17 750750 for details.
