Even by the superlative standards of the BMW M-cars commencing with the M1 in 1978, the E39 M5 produced from 1998 to 2003 is generally regarded as a standout model. Powered by a rev-hungry 4941cc V8 developing 394 bhp, the super Saloon was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 4.8 seconds and 155mph (limited). The M5 received the September 2000 facelift at the same time as the standard E39 models including halogen “corona rings” in the headlights (often called “Angel Eyes”), LED tail-lights and various interior upgrades. The mechanical specification was unchanged.
1 of just 2,595 right-hand drive E39 European examples manufactured, this M5 is finished in Carbon Black with Silverstone trim and displays a modest mileage of under c.133,000 from new. In current ownership since 2005, with just 1 former keeper recorded on HPI, it comes with an extensive history file including, invoices, owner’s manuals, original price list and stamped service book. In 2014, the engine was overhauled by BMW M-Power specialist MR VANOS at 112,000 miles at a cost of £3,937. It benefits from a mainly BMW service history, while the alloys were recently refurbished and shod with Michelin Pilot Sports. An original BMW roof rack is included along with a current MOT to June 2026.
