Hi all,

So we're looking at various options for a new car.

On Sunday we drove an F10 M5 - A nice solid car, and seemed pretty quick [in rush hour A-Road traffic nearing SPECS - not the most fun test drive] - but purposely didn't push it as reset the trip computer to get an indication of MPG (It got 19.4 BTW).

I like the F10, but I LOVE the F80 in styling - much more exciting to look at I think.

What are they like to live with daily?
- My other half will use it for a shopping car and dropping the kids to school during the day.
I'll use it at weekends (retaining an old diesel for the station car park).

Although I love it, it seems difficult to get my head around spending so much on a 3 series.

Was also considering a new MY17 E Class, AMG C63 saloon etc - need to try a few things before deciding finally.

Any thoughts appreciated.
