I saw some strange mud slinging here recently, so am a bit hesitant to stick my head above the parapet, but here goes.

There is a new addition to our stable, and it's a Le Mans blue '51 M5. Suffice to say, it's really rather good!

Good to hear.

Also from the E39 M5 news desk, Derestrictor's car has been sorted out and is back to be being driven in full European annexation attack mode. (problem was caused by the ABS loom which has been replaced)

the loom was eating his batteries?

Don't know if he's solved the battery mystery, but the ABS loom was responsible for the car not accellerating full on as it should. Eg only 153 at the last vmax where it had previously pulled 164.

TechLeader1 has just confirmed a respectable speed: seems the Revo map was ok after all (unlike the rear discs which have just been replenished.)

Still want something cheap & nasty instead, however!
