Doesnt seem that much of a bargain to me: coming up to 9yr old car with 95k on the clock. What were they - 50k new?

Still would though

Seems a bargain to me, as there are 11yr old ITRs going for £1500 less:

Honda : Honda Integra 1.8 DOHC Type R **PRICE DROP**

Yes, it's an M5. But it's now 9 years old, and almost 100,000 miles.

I'd say the price is about right.

It's cheap, should be about 9K private and 10.5-11k from a dealer, will make someone very very happy if it turns out to be a genuine cherised example.

Can somebody lend me 5K at 5% interest? I'd buy it then

Its a facelift front end... but with pre-facelift rear lights. The pre-2001 model E39 M5 liked to drink a bit of oil didn't they??


Cheers,

If something big goes wrong with it, it will cost the purchase price to fix it properly, BIG risk if you ask me!

Only £1.5k more than a 11yr old ITR though ... what was the price difference as new? £40k? ITR is down on power by 210bhp too
