s I"m aware would be no issues as never been serviced outside of approved BMW ppl, and well within the required 60k on mileage.

Would it be possible to purchase a BMW or Mondial warranty for this?
If more than 2 years between services, regardless of mileage covered, the car would not be eligible for the BMW/Mondial extended warranty.darreni said:

Have just checked using vehicle details, Natalie at Mondial has confirmed there is absolutely no problem in providing a warranty, 3 levels of cover and 18 different pricing options etc etc and has kindly sent me the details via email. It's called a lasped policy and covers after one month and will only not cover and previous faults. Which are none according to BMW after full clean bill of health received in writing today. I even mentioned this 2 year servicing gap, so poss updated the policy or now just profit driven. Either way It is possible lookin at e-mail comprehensive cover BMW / Mondial for yr for E61 M5 is £1044.20 so cheaper than the mthly fuel bill. SD 80 said:

So if you are on here, then announce yourself!! The car has attracted a lot of interest and the dealer has a list of interested parties, just in case the buyer pulls out. Hopefully the car will get the use it deserves and puts a smile on the owners face. So is that 173 registered M5 touring now!

You'd think they would mention the idle period in the advert. It's not as if nobody will notice!I agree they are rare, very rare, but also a very niche market. So what do you think the final price will be?
Below is 2007 saloon with an AUC warranty and v similar spec...

But its a saloon! Its final value has limited comparison to the Tourer which was made in far, far fewer numbers. Below is 2007 saloon with an AUC warranty and v similar spec...

I am with you but how much of a premium should it deserve? If this is 25k with 1y AUC warranty that is 23.5k without and without negiotiation! So should this e61 be £30k or more like £27k (as it comes without warranty I assume)... Just raising the question. Not sure what the answer is as this looks to be a decent car!!! And I think the estate should hold a premium
