Was there also and was near the vicinity when the crash happened! Remember the screeching, bang, then the smoke! Ran closer and recall the crowd just stunned to silence about what they had just witnessed. Absolute miracle that both drivers walked away. This is the same race/year that a wheel came off a car, bounced over the perimeter safety fence and landed on a car parked on Jervious quay, if i can recall.

Bugger - snapped at Spotlight getting essential sewing supplies bahaha 🤣. Since the day was good, took it out for what now seems like its monthly drive ☹️

Wondered what happened to this one. Would see it now and again but not for the last few years.

Have thought about doing the same. Out of curiosity, what the general consensus of constitutes a long daily trip for a diesel - eg 10, 20, 30+ kms round trip? Or more ?

^^ Great q - would like to know this as well!

If you do your due diligence, it checks out and feels right to you - then why not? I did 😎 You’re familiar with the e60/61 series but the m5 is just next level!

Nothing personal but sorry, just like the 'ram raiders you reference, no sympathy here (regardless of the circumstances you've outlined). But I do enjoy your posts and project updates so please keep posting 👍.

Has been withdrawn? Now sold??... 😏

Wow - it’s coming along and what a really nice example already! Look forward to the updates 😁

An e61 that has been shown some love! Could be worth it…

Don't see these come up that often - a low-ish mileage 525ix and in manual! Pity about the asking price though

Agree!

Cool colour combo! Anyone know this car - 2006 e60 M5?

Nah - its the black BMW badge that makes it rare 🤣

Fixed it haha! looks like I do need professional help 😢. Proud to be in similar multiple car ownership company aye @Jun bahaha 🤣🤣

Haha - not a surprise at all, apparently its been there for a 'few years' lol. Took me down memory lane when I spotted it under all that dust. I knew straight away it was my 'first' one haha. Reminds me, I need to get them to sort an airbag light on my green one! Nice work on your M5 - have to admit, I've been getting the M5 itch again! 🤔 🤣

Correct! 👍

I would reiterate too - blocked sunroof drains are an issue and will cause water ingress problems! Clear them now for relatively cheap $ and keep on top of them - this will save you $$$ when you have water soaked carpets and need to dry them. awesome car though and just enjoy it!

Not another e30 bahaha 🤣

What about the moss on the pulsar that they moved onto the street lol

Thats pretty impressive! Hmmm, a 535i GT could be a viable replacement to take over long distance travel duties... 🤣

Don’t disagree 😁. Great way to showcase your fleet though!

Is it just me that finds this advice coming from a stealership quite amusing 🤣

Will end up becoming a museum piece 😎

Thanks @akapjay I’ve been leaning towards this so will probably go with it
