Extended BMW warranty should do you fine and less depreciation than something newer.

Not bothered about MPG?



2007, 19k on the clock, easy enough to put a warranty on.

Squire, The M6 is three cars in one.

On a B road with everything defeated, it is intoxicating.

On a 'bahn, it resides foursquare in the indomitable category.

Everywhere else, it's like any other, brutish GT.

The point is, for thirty bags, it is, in practice, ludicrous vfm.

Nice - although I think I'd go with my earlier M6 over the M5. Wood a bit iffy too!

New RS focus. Never looked back since I got mine! Quick, great handling, 30mpg, can be used every day if needs must. Looks the muts on the road with great presence. smile you only need to read the likes of EVO mag to see how highly it's rated in the trade
