Hang on, wait a minute... you mean I could buy an F10 M5 and tow my 1600kg caravan with it? Does it have to have a factory towbar? ideawoohoo
Yes I know where the door is, I will hand my PH card in on the way out.
Here you go..

I love this forum.

Guy currently drives a diesel fabia , wants to pull a lightweight vintage caravan, and is therefore advised to buy an M5. Just off to tell my wife the good news smile

I think the relationship would be spectacular, explosive and short-lived.
Already have my work cut out keeping an E39 going, if I subjected an E61 M5 to pulling a caravan it would break me. And it.

The F10 on the other hand, has less of a reputation for fragility.

I did buy a 325i coupe though, the old battle bus skoda has the towing duties.
