          M5 E60 testing going on in Munich right now

          I though the board members would like to know that the press launch of the E60 M5 is currently taking place at the BMW driver training centre at Munich Airport. It goes on for the next couple of weeks or so with groups of journalists arriving in the mornings, taking the car for a day and a half
          and then dropping them back. Therefore every other day there will be about 40 M5s at the driver training centre. Two colours - Silverstone and
          Interlagos.

          If any Munich based board mambers wanted to see the car in motion, that's where it will be!

          Feel free to post this information on the board, but please don't mention my name!

          I wonder what happens to these 40 M5's once all these journalists have had their fun?

          Regards,

          Terk.

          Just so happens my Service Manager will be spending the weekend in Munich
          before going to Malta Monday. Sent him a copy of this thread and asked him to try and take some pictures.
