Spec is as follows, as far as i can make out:

528i SE Steptronic
BMW Individual Paint
BMW Individual Dark/Light Grey two tone Nappa/Buffalo Interior
Breyton 18" Softpoint Alloys
Breyton Suspension Set-up
Breyton Sports electric mirrors
Breyton Exhaust System

I've only just got back from driving it, as i'll be driving a Mondeo hire car for the rest of the week! :( Just starting to get used to the auto box.

First mod is to get rid of that God awful M badge on the boot!

What do you guys think?

He keeps going on about how hes not going to mod this one, but we all know that ain't gonna happen. :p

He took me out in it earlier and I was nothing but gobsmacked, its a truly awesome car in every respect.

I think it's gonna be a long few days away from home this week, lol.

Cheers Guys, i'm really chuffed with it.

Yes sport bumpers and facelift lights would be nice, although i have sort of promised my other half that i will not mod this one and pay to keep the full BMW service history up instead...

...have to see if i can do both....just don't tell her! :o

Still can't get used to all that power (dont get me wrong, an M5 it aint) but it feels like it compared to my humble 4 pot. Even my mate with a Scooby reckoned it was faster than his, which is crazy considering the size/weight penalty.

Got go away on business until the weekend though! I've got a bloody Mondeo hire car! :mad:

Leave it alone bro, i've written down the mileage! ;)
