Agreed a deal this evening and going to put a deposit on a E60 M5 tomorrow!!! woohoo

Will prob cost me a small fortune to run but hell who cares....

Likely to pick it up next week so will try to post a couple of pics, not of my grin but the car!

Videos!!!! Only just about know how to take a photo....smile

Like to think I've got a decent deal but once I've contributed to BP's revival in this credit crunch, I may start a whinge forum!!!

Nah, you'll put your foot down and any whinges will disappear.
Im like that with my old E39.

Id love an E60 but Ive been told an extension comes first crycry very disappointing, LOL

If your digital camera takes small MP4 videos the electric headrests make a good holder for video cameras and the like,

Congratulations. They're a beast of a car.

What age, colour, spec etc?

Silverstone...55 plate...35k miles...BMW Warranty...

Spec....nothing much over standard, phone prep at least!!! One might say poverty spec, but when standard includes HUD (colour of course!), Pro-Nav etc...who cares!!

And all for sub £26k with tax till May 09 along with BMW warranty till June 09, I'm one happy chap...

Sure, I've seen a few others towards the £28/29k mark with much higher spec but they've allowed warranty to expire, tax due etc....

Will update more when I pick up next week, deposit was paid this morning... smile

Cracking colour. I had an E39 in Silverstone and loved it, best colour IMO. I'm getting more and more tempted by one of these now and I'd go as far as to say its now one of two options to replace my current M.

Best of luck with it, please post some pics up when you get a chance.

You will love it. Brilliant value now, worth it for the engine alone.

All you need now is an eissemann race exhaust http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=YOJlDoXUsP4

Bit loud but what a noise
