The super saloon appeared for the first time in BMW Car Magazine today. It’ll be featuring regularly there as part of their long term fleet. Of course, if you read this blog you’ll already be ahead of the M5 news, but there’s loads of other great content within that magazine’s pages, including another M5 in the long term fleet, so grab yourself a copy!

The M5’s stable mate, a 330d, is also featured in the magazine’s long termer section. Historical entries can be found here – I’m still bringing them up to date but plan to add to them once a week or so until I’ve caught up.
