BMW E60 M5 V10: The Real Costs of Ownership

Time for the latest installment of the M5 saga. You’ve seen the PPI and now to start telling the real story of owning one of these legends! 

This video covers the first 3 months of ownership and some of the fun along the way. Learnt some interesting lessons including that it is possible to get a title printed the same day, even if you aren’t the owner!

Daily Driving an E60 M5/6 BMWs only V10

I have been actively hunting for a V10 M5 (or M6) for the past 11 months. I have done everything from order cars from Carvana, ask forum members 1500 miles away to check out a car over lunch, to watching every Bring a Trailer auction.

Seemingly the longer I left it the more expensive the cars were becoming. A friend pointed me in the direction of this car and after a few weeks (long story) the car is mine. OK it’s not perfect but I can tell a few stories along the way.

The goal is to commit to daily driving this as far as possible (2’ snow drifts are out) and tell the story along the way… brace yourself 😀
