Recovery Truck......

Problem is that the M5 is it's just "SO" expensive to modify......Not that I was going to do any serious modification, but just sensible ones.....(Brakes, Suspension and Exhaust System) Just for a set of Big Brakes (Which is a weak point on the M5.....total brake fade after a couple of laps on a track day..... if your using it as it was designed for) would cost me 2k, and a decent suspension kit (Bilstien PSS9) Is Big Money. Exhaust System 2k.....and to do anything to the engine is Mega Money. So basically 5k just to have the suspension, brakes and an exhaust system.

So I'm just considering my options....but no firm decision as yet.

The M5 is a fantastic car, which is hard to improve on. But a Petrol Head is never happy with standard.....
