new one? great cars Borrowed a mates to drive to Paris for one of the England Rugby games....
FAST AS FUCK
Saw over 180mph, didn't really go under 130mph ever. Pressed cruise control at 160mph.... you soon realise just how UTTER WANK OUR ROADS are compared with the French peages!!! beautiful roads. Smooth fast and empty.... a real real treat. oh and NO cops ever at all! didn't see one on roads and I must have driven 3000miles over the world cup!
A colleague took the Eurostar and left before me....
I was in the hotel first
Calais to my hotel in Paris in 1 hour 40 mins. Proper cars. His is black with black everything. Looks like Darth vaders taxi

Why do you :blabla , have you got an E60 M5? Or just on your dads insurance for his car

I have had the E39 for a couple of yrs now still got the Cossie though.
They are just effortless really-and pull so well at Any speed,the handling is addictive and so is the torque.
Re the E60 M5,its unbeatable above a ton but its ultimately less satistfying than the E39 which looks better inside and out.

well,we went down last night(me and neil-topaz).decent drive down in the audi at 90-100 mph.
eventually got on the m25 and then the m4.
"what if its a dog rough car?""what if its a really rough area?""what if its a set up as he knows im bringing cash?" were some of the questions being asked..........
"come off here" says the copilot,"fuck-look at all these high rise flats!"
it says turn into this industrial estate-"why are we going onto a dark trading estate???"
"whats that place lit up at the end?"
only this place
www.verdiferrari.biz
and the m5 is parked outside.........what a result!
fuckin tons of ferraris inside,feel free to look around says the guy-what a really nice chap.
test drive-all well,find out he owns black rs500 as well which he has had from new with 12000 miles on it and a fully blown mountune motor in it!!
he has just had the bmw mot'd and a full 4 wheel alignment.car is much better than i expected as it was a really good price.
cash changed hands,we refuelled and drove home.
very powerful car-even from 60 mph in 6th gear the grunt is awesome!
and used less fuel than the audi on the run home
first impressions-it feels like an excellent all round package which can be driven at any speed with ease.i really like it.
ill get some pics up later.....

Exactly! surely its worth the Ł50 a week ALONE just on the fact that you can say 'I have an M5'.... and people think you are cool and a proper petrol head....
rather than 'I have a 5 series Diesel' and people think you are a tight arse with a beard who doesn't actually like cars

Do we all have to go out and buy the fastest car out there that does 20mpg, to be classed as a 'proper car enthusiast'?
Anyway, get some pics up mate. I love the E39 M5's and silverstone blue would be my first choice.
