My New Car

Lucky B'stard Andrew, to say I'm a little green is an understatement!

There is only one thing I'd change though and that's to get some sportier alloys on it as they do look a little too understated for any car but hey, just my opinion chum!

I'm trying to be a good boy so santa will bring me an e60 M5 touring for crimbo, but if I'm a little naughty, he may bring me a 545, what do you reckon?

Hope you have many miles of trouble free motoring ahead though I doubt you'll find a manual for a little while as most people will still be going to main dealer with them.

The 17" give quite a harsh ride, 16" might have been better.  I'm more of a cruiser than into pure performance so would prefer an ever so softer ride (like my E39) but I like to hear the engine growl every so often though. Fingers and toes crossed for the M5 touring. Andrew

I must admit, I did see a 5 same colour and same alloys as you and I'm not as put off in the flesh as I was with the pics so I guess being understated is half the fun and hearing the engine as you whip the saxo driver is the other half!

As for the M5 touring, anyone know next Saturdays lotto numbers?    go on, there's a 10% cut in it for you
