HOLY COW! WHAT A CAR!!!
Discussion
hi guys,
been on here for a while now mostly lurking around the tvr section,anyway i got tired of my car breaking and forever being stranded when it spat the dummy out!
so a little while ago i decided to buy something fairly sensible so i looked at e55's etc,
anyway last week i decided on a bmw e34 m5,
found a car went to see it bought it and all i can say is holy cow! what a car ive never had so much fun in a car in my life!
picked it up on tuesday,
got it serviced and set up rolling road etc running perfect
stuck some new tyres on it [ouch!]
got it valeted looks fantastic,
chucked a weekend bag in for me and the other half, and headed for our place in tuscany which we bought a couple of years ago as a wreck more on that later!
the m5 performed faultlessly over plus 2000 miles what a drivers car she is!!
had it upto 170 on the way to italy dsat perfect and didnt miss a beat all the way there,
and ever returned 25.3 mpg at 120 mph with the cruise on!
just thought i would post and say what a fantastic car it is!
if you are thinking of buying one,dont hesitate!
m power rocks!!!
cheers

I mean well done!
These cars are sublime: layered brilliance awaiting the lucky owner's continued unwrapping.
Whether it's the dumbfounding stability at very high speed (as per your comments), the lazy meander into utterly natural, controllable oversteer or the near perfect weighting of all the controls, there's a joyous percolation of massively deep, engineering genius, an enveloping inevitability.
An aesthete's delight, like it's successor, a classic silhouette.
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!
