I pick up an E60 M5 this weekend having receipts for the main items and a decent PPI report leaving me with a chunk of change to bring it up to my standard, fuel and emergencies. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2078 Report post Posted July 5, 2021 Thought they were convincing you into a boxter for a moment there. Enjoy. I wish I had purchased @GorGasm's one after driving it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nice, now you have $20k for yet another toy!! Bringing it up to standard can be chalked up to 'maintenance' based on man-math.

I have a sneaking suspicion desmo belts were made at the same factory the S85 bearings were (I'm still furious at myself for not hitting buy now on the last Monster s4rs Tricolore that was on TM however).

Hmm, and I wish on the bearing front. Change cambelts at 10,000 km intervals. Running RS cams which isn’t valve train friendly. But is still making power to 12k rpm 😀 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
