The previous owner of that was on forum.bmw5. Very nice car.. I had a manual 535i sport before buying my M5. Good car, and could get over 30mpg on a sensible run.
Was this the guy in Portsmouth? I've bought it from my neighbour who got it from that guy in Portsmouth, i knew it was a nice car as i was the one who drove it back for him! Averaged 39.7 mpg all motorway between 60-70 mph which is quite amazing i think, it can be reasonable around town with the correct use of the manual gearbox. Obviously it's not been bought for economy, although it's now my daily driver. Just to add, i also used to own an E39 M5, fab cars infact all the E39s are superb.

BTW the previous owner took those pics, and they were much better quality.. I would post a link to his project thread, but he didn't blank out the numberplate. I will post it if you don't mind though?

That'll be great, i have my private plate going on soon.
hereIt is a very nice looking E39, I must admit. One thing I'd be looking to do if I were you - M5 mirrors.. but that's just my opinion
