Just bought my new Beast
After selling my high mileage 2001 Imola Red beast mid 2006 I have been driving my wifes Audi while trying to decide what to buy next. After test driving an M3 and an Audi S4 and mulling over a few other models (merc sl350) the M5 came calling and on Friday I put a deposit down on a rather nice 2002 Le Mans Blue M5. Will be picking it up in 7-10 days, private buy for £21k , only covered 28k miles and has an immaculate history, 1 owner, sat nav,sunroof, garaged from new,trackstar etc. Can't wait to get her home!
