I eat most things for breakfast!

A Very welcome addition to the fleet, the New BMW E60 M5.

This car has to be every Ferrari owners worst nightmare. You can imagine it now, the ‘Barbie and Ken’ couple in the Rosso Red F360 Spider, the lift of the sunglasses, that glance over the shoulder at the traffic lights…The recognition of those M5 side vents…That ‘oh no’ feeling kicks in…’I could be made to look seriously silly right now’. A competitor that really is a genuine wolf in sheeps clothing. A civilised understated executive hack, capable of over 205 Miles Per Hour and has recored figures as low as 4.1 seconds during its 0-60 mph sprints (Road & Track magazine ’06). With figures like these, things could indeed look bleak for Mr Ken.

This particular car was owned by BMW for the first six months. During its time with them the car bore the registration number 750IL. A perfect complement for such a fine vehicle. This is an ‘Individual’ model which makes it not only very rare but also just a little more special.

Any colour as long as it’s black!

Ahh…the E39 BMW M5. One of those cars that stirs the soul and easily contends for the title ‘Best Sports Saloon Ever Made’. Now we don’t often come across these last-of-the-old-shape M5’s so to have two on offer in the same colour at the same time was worthy of a family photo. Not both the same spec mind you but both with good histories and nice mileages in the sort of condition that inspires confidence regarding the previous owners’ attention to care and maintenance.
