After a bit of digging it seems we are getting an E39 M5 on the show and I believe this is the car.

Hi Russ, When does the show air do you know?

Will be having a watch!

[skoff]

Gordon Bennett! What did they pay for it if it's only up for sale at £6.5K?

[M5 Russ]

Not 100% certain when it airs but the series starts on March 20th on Discovery I think.

Uprated 430bhp!!!!!! Since when?

Love watching this show but it does make me laugh the amount of time Ed spends on them. Imagine if you had to pay the going hourly rate, the bill would be huge

£6500.00ono That is a real bargain, I wonder why it hasn't sold yet, it's been on since November!

Looks like its a poverty spec and the choice out there is massive.

I agree, there is no list of toys on the advert, which probably means it has none...

Love the show too but constantly rant about labour when they talk "profits!"

[KP]

Sure Ed would've used a bit of satin black on the car somewhere!

A chap on forum.bmw5.co.uk supplied the "mint example" car they use during the show - look out for a blue M5 with Alpina bits fitted.
