After fast country road driving this morning had to brake heavily a couple of times and noticed on one occasion a large amount of brake fade which wasn't good. Its happened before

Strange...I had a an F10 M5 for a couple of weeks, and never experiences any brake fade no matter how enthusiastically driven......

I've experienced the same the other having been pushing on a bit, but to be honest it doesn't surprise me as it weighs near as damn it 2 tonnes.

My 997 wouldn't fade even on track but simply overheated and ate pads but still managing to stop on a six pence. I'm not sure the M5 would last more than a few laps of Goodwood the way I drive it!
