Here in the Uk a pre-facelift M5 is about £3-4k cheaper than a facelift model. Thats quite a big difference but is it worth it?

The only main differences for is the front and rear lights, grey dials and widescreen sat nav. Any other big changes? Most of the changes you can retrofit anyway.

At what mileage does an M5 become high mileage? 80,000 for an E46 m3 is high.

In the UK, how much will it cost to change to angel lights?

Also did pre-facelift M5's have memory seats?

Yes they did have memory seats. To retrofit the lights, the widescreen and not to forget the front PDC that most post facelift cars have it would cost more than the premium. Not forgetting you will also have a newer car. Oh the steering wheel as well.

The lights would cost about £500, sat nav upgrade about £600.Not really bothered about steering wheel or front pdc.
