2000 BMW 5 Series M5 review from UK and Ireland
"Fastest and most complete I owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing went wrong with this car at all. Just the basic wear and tear like tires wearing out.
General comments?
This car was VERY fast.
It handled very well for a big car.
If you pushed her too far, she would be easy to get back in line.
The build quality of these cars is a amazing (better built than my E65 7-series and Mercedes SL500), thou not as well built as the previous 2 5-series I have owned (the E34 shape).
The radio/TV/SAT NAV phone where of high quility.
She drove very well on my 19inch ACS alloys which surprised me.
