A double-bluff on April Fool's Day was no match for a woman who cashed in on a seemingly ridiculous luxury car trade-in promotion. Tianna Marsh was the first person to try the unusual trade-in offer from the BMW Newmarket dealership today. The carmaker said it was keeping alive a tradition of April 1 pranks with its front-page ad in the New Zealand Herald today. The "April Fools' Day special" promised a new BMW to the first person who took their car and the front-page coupon to the dealership. Footage: BMW NZ/YouTube
