This in my shop this week (re-paint drivers side, bonnet & front bar)

Is it just me or are E39s starting to look dated?

I personally think the E39 is still the best 5 series shape, and one of the best mid size sedans around. Certainly hasnt dated as much as almost everything elese from that time.

Saw a very tidy Anthracite Grey E39 M5 just down the road from me in Grey Lynn. Can't be many of these and it wasn't Dave O's Old V8 M plate.

I agree, they have all aged well and have a perfect old\new balance. Ive met quite a few people who thought my E34 came out in mid 90's. E39's still look good but are too common to really stand out.

The car didn't sell with those V8M plates. I think the new plate is HJT*** something as I've also seen it in ponsonby recently.

Passed a copy or my car (minus ACS work) heading south for road trip. Also a coupe, same colour with similar rear bumper (minus PDC)

Gave the indian dude a thumbs up for picking E46 in that colour/shape and then drove off, hahaha.

Seems to be pretty well taken care of - CarJam has some photos of it in mint condition, presumably from when it last changed hands on TM.

Yeah it sold on Friday who picked it up. Would have been the new owner as AFAIK mine was the only Anthracite E39 M5 in NZ.

PS Happy birthday old man :P
