Whatever you do, don't drive an M5. As I can't see you ever not wanting one and that'll be it. They are everything a Saphire isn't. Awesome.

That M5 you linked to in the original post is stunning - I know the seller and assure you that motor will be in perfect condition.

Same chap who I bought my 540i Sport off

yea i had the evo before and id say there was nothing in it (evo was 350bhp) i followed an m5 once and i was behind and had to hold back to about 60 then he gained about 2 car lenghs to 110. im finding the m5 a bit better on fuel ,alot more refined /quiter but still makes enough noise when you want it to.also its a laugh with the tc turned off were as the evo was to safe on the road.
the m5 definately cant turn heads like an evo but it is nice not having grandads asking if my exhausts broke!
