F10 M5

Love

The stealth look/the build quality and toys
The way it glides along the road when you want it to
The way goes like a rocket ship when you want it to - 0-100mph in 7.8 seconds can be soooo much fun when allowed smile

Hate

Having now had the car for 16 months and 16k miles I really, really can't find anything I dislike about the M5. I look forward to every drive and I'm taking it to Le Mans and then around Italy for three weeks over the summer.............can't wait!

If Calsberg made the best saloon car in the world the F10 M5 would 'probably' be on the short list yes

if fuel economy is one of your concerns, don't think you chose the right car did you wink

Haha. .. think 'hate' is probably the wrong choice of word! Was just going with the general theme of the thread.

No real complaint though as the car is truly epic and so utterly addictive to drive that I'm driving it far too much! (all social driving as I use public transport to commute into the city).

Mercedes CLK63 AMG

Like:

The Noise
The Ride
The Smile it puts on my face

Dislike:

The fact they're so rare & the values are starting to creep upwards so becoming aware of keeping the mileage low frown
Rare? I saw 5 C63's on an 18 mile stretch between Branton and Gainsborough yesterday....touring is my favourite!

MKIV R32 Golf

Likes:
1) Engine noise - Even with a stock exhaust and a simple mod - It sounds great.
2) Speed - Definitely not one of the fastest cars on the road by a long shot. But it's got power when it needs it.
3) Interior. Seats are heated leather, comfortable driving position.

Hate:
1) Rattles - If it can rattle, it will.
2) Repair costs - Can be rather pricey. (For example - Timing chain can be ~£1000)
3) Space - Absolute minimal back seat space. Large, but shallow boot + no spare.

Undecided:
1) Fuel economy - Been getting around ~23mpg on every day runs. Worth it though.

And on that note, I'm off to the opticians.
