Fab car history
Love the plate on the M5 touring - V10WGN

Excellent and intriguing history.

I have just picked up an E61 M5 as a family car- but will be keeping the Z!

So jealous! Both would be the absolute dream family combo

I have first dibs on my old one should he ever be stupid enough to sell it!

So had sills off to check how solid car was - everything looks great under there. Bit of surface rust which needs treatment then underway it all again and job done.

Also new bushes at the back as they’ve dropped.

New handbrake shoes as they’ve disintegrated!

Also I’ve completely forgotten how to put photos on properly!

So turns out just before lockdown was a bad time to drop your car off at a garage - who knows when I’ll ever see it again!

Ah that's a shame. Mind you, couldn't really drive it either!
