Diesel M5?
http://used-cars.autos.yahoo.com/use...YXJjaA--#image

I never knew m5's came in diesel. Is this fake? Even if the information was placed with error, why is the car so **** cheap? Seems pretty fishy to me.

Re: Diesel M5?
No M5 has ever been made as a diesel. He must have clicked that by accident. The only M5 ever claimed to be a diesel would be Ashoks, but that's just his great sense of humor.
Why is the price that low? Because it probably isnt a real ad, and is a scam. Dont touch it, as 2002's should be above 40k at least.

Re: Diesel M5?
I would say that the Ad is a fake. I am almost positive that it is a cut and paste job from and ebay ad that does look legit and has the same car ( looks like) at a buy now price of $48,888

Re: Diesel M5?
Not only is this M5 a RARE Diesel model but it is also a 4wheel drive.
Just what you want when out working the fields.

Actually, Ashok has a magnetic 520d badge on his M5 in London just for fun.

Re: Diesel M5?
I just wrote to him and told him how excited I was to see a diesel 4WD M5. "The car of my dreams...blah.." I told him I'd send him money orders for 22K if, and ONLY if, he pays for shipping. I'll post it if he gets back to me... Can't wait for my new 4-wheeler....
