M5 My Review!
FUCKING HELL!
Absolute bonkers, i cannot fault the car, the drive makes my AMG feel like a barge
In "M" mode the car is insane it spins the wheels in 3rd gear in the dry the 2 stage T/C is a blast! What a drivers car, and it feels much smaller than it is....the ride shakes your teeth out in m mode and the seat bolsters keep you in the seat by moving when conering, the gear change on the fastest setting is unreal, the sound on m power is fucking sexual they say it sounds like an F430 and i agree.......then i can turn it all off and go to 400bhp mode for a real comfy relaxed fully auto mode tame beast....exhaust seems quieter too?
As for is it faster than the AMG (when it was std YES YES!!), no not in a straight line although the M5 is lighter. The amg is a point and squirt car effortless whereas this thing is rev it and rev it hard all the way to the sexual noise of 8500rpm from a N/A V10
The i-drive is WANK though
so yes i can fault it but who the hell cares?!
Not sure what extras it has but it has a DVD player in dash with rear TV screens, it has extended leather but what is the difference between FULL/EXTENDED/STD?????? The headlings is suade which is nice, has telematics? SOS button for the hatersbluetooth ready? ...oh and 11 gearbox settings FFS

They are limited to 165mph, apparently they had to do this as the diesel version has a 155mph limiter!!!! Delimited though 204mph
I own 2 200mph + cars!

Lovely looking car and sounds like a lot of fun to drive , you just need a petrol tanker bringing up the rear to keep you going .
Wouldn't say no to one myself but my wallets not got the petrol funds in it any more

Phil,
I fucking told you about the handling etc, and you wouldn't have it. However, it is nice to be proven right yet again once you have actually driven the car in question - you actually then confirm EVERYTHING I told you in the first place that you originally disputed . Perhaps you will believe me in future?
