5 year old M5 for sale: pricier than new!
OK so it's had some tasteless bling and mods thrown at it, but would you really pay round-about list price for a 5 year old car?

Is it really that much faster than a derestricted standard one? Where does the "certified 220 mph" come from anyway? If you read the text, it's never been officially timed at any speed!

As an M5 owner that thing is a disaster. As somebody said that car is meant to be go with minimal show.
The M5 already comes with really nice wheels (imho) why put those monstrosities on there?
Now let me think. £65k for that, or spend another £5k and buy an all new twin turbo 570 BHP F10 M5 in a years time. I just can't decide.............

C'mon BMW badge snobs, don't forget you'd all be driving Mercs or Audis if it wasn't for this Ultimate Driving Machine.
Just remember not to park it to close to the end wall of your garage, otherwise you'll be spending the night in there.

Mine got covered in bird cack this morning - must have been radio controlled birds owned by Audi drivers I reckon...
I'd happily drive any brand - in fact I'd choose other more mainstream brands over Audi and Merc unless after something really pokey.

BMW do as they say in their ads of old. Give you the ultimate driving experience. Which i honestly can say yes they are the best drivers car of all the german brands. However there are now faster, more comfortable german makes out there now. Whether they are a better drivers car, now thats up for debate. As most of these "top gear" track tests find the BMW smacks the bottom of it's rivals.
Then again it seems to boil down down to driver preference these days, as opposed to how good a drivers car, any car actually is.
