Took this with the phone the other day, rare to have both out the front. smile



Yes the badge on the back of the Ro is damaged after some w$%^er tried to nick them the night before when I left it out! All repaired now though.

To add salt to the wound they equate to around 1035hp between them.

The Ro lives in there as thats the toy and yes it just! goes although I cant have alot else in there with it! Bloody modern shoe box houses. Tried to buy the garage next door as the women who owns it only stores crap in there but she wont sell!!!

Ah - small world. Yes he seemed a nice guy. Car seems good to. Just changed all the oils, belts, filters and plugs so I have a baseline to work from. Doing the brakes soon so they are good to go for the Ring. For not alot of money you do seem to get alot! of car with the M5 so long as you get a half decent one. Wound it open this morning for the first time really and its very deceiving how quick it is, Ro's all about breaking yr neck and noise but the M5 is just smooth and fast, quite impressed so far.

The M5 came from Reading Porche as a trade in which they were obviously not interested in trading on the forecort (not posh enough for them!). There was an issue with the reg as the owner didnt bother sending the paperwork off to get the orriginal plate back on it or something like that which ment the car could not be sold for nearly 5 weeks but I was in no rush really, just used the Ro for a few weeks... smile

Two black cars to clean though is a nightmare!! Must buy silver next!

Pvapour - IL take the SL! love those and would like to buy an SL65 next year if I can afford it......
M5's a far better built car even at 8 yrs old, Ro is just stupid fast! (and no one want to play after they have heard it rev up a little)
