Does anyone know this car?

http://www.pistonheads.com/classifie...m5/6045793?v=c

I'm going to see on Sunday and as long as there's nothing of concern, will probably buy. Bit annoying the photo shows it with just 22miles left in the tank, which makes me wonder how it's been treated.

Just seeing if anyone's seen it around etc. It's the dealer demo car - hopefully it was thrashed during the running in period as I've heard it's better to ignore running in guidelines!

Never seen it but I can't expect TOO much damage has been done to it, since it's low mileage.

I hope so - need to confirm its Competition Pack too, as the exhaust tips look silver rather than black.

COMPETITION PACK OWNERS - Does your V5 document identify you car as "M5 Competition Pack"? That'll be a sure fire way to tell.

Once I have the vin I'll run it through the decoder to check too.

Yeah it's comp pack, a quick number plate check will confirm it too..

Let us know how it goes

All the best

Just confirmed with the dealer - exhaust tips are black

I'm confident it's definately a Competition Pack car now

This car was first registered on 18 September 2014 and is registered as a Blue "M5 COMPETITION PACKAGE AUTO". It was delivered with the number GK64URA, had SLB501 assigned, and then reverted back to GK64URA.

It has no previous owners, so the current one is the only owner.

The VIN is WBSFV92020xxxxx01.

A full decode of the VIN from bimmer.work is below and I've highlighted the optional extras above a standard car:

Thanks Paul! I'm amazed how helpful my fellow M5 forumites are!

What you've just listed has made my day - car has Comfort Access & Surround View!!! They weren't listed on the advert, and the pictures weren't clear enough for me to see the surround view button next to the gear stick.

This is just getting better and better - driving to Kent tomorrow to see the car at 11am - will report back. But I'm pretty sure I'm gonna sign on the dotted line.

How did you get on?

What an interesting day! Car was perfect aside from a few light scratches/small scrape on the front chin, which they need to sort before I collect later next week.

Everything felt like new - interior was immaculate, and it felt proper luxurious and easy to drive....until you put your foot down and all hell breaks loose! So much fun, so rapid, and that was just a fairly tame test drive - can't wait till the car is in my hands later next week!

So glad I did it as I really like the engine note, despite it being muted. Gonna do the oem exhaust valve mod straight away. I'm coming from a 335i so used to what BMW turbo's are like.

Oh forgot to mention - a nice little touch was that when we arrived back from the drive, there was some dude parked at the dealership with a blue F12Berlinetta - a few people stood round admiring it, whose heads turned as I drove turned by and did a little downshift. We park up and just before turning the car off I give it a few revs to hear that exhaust one last time. Ferrari guy decides he won't be outdone - we proceeded to have a little vs. battle - it's obvious who the winner of that was though!

Anyway, he starts walking over and says hello as I get out of the car. Turns out he's the original owner of my M5, who spec'd it from new, so it's NOT a dealer demo car! I'd already found that out from the salesguy anyway, as I was curious why Paul's data above showed a private plate change.

So, I wasn't overly happy, until I got to actually meet and exchange contacts with the original owner! He'd traded the M5 in and went for new X6 and had just bought his son an M4. Said his cars are always garaged etc and as he's got a few, they're all low mileage. Had loads of praise for the car and ended up showing me around - he was very proud of the options and pointed everyhting out (not that I wasnt already aware). I think the sales guy was embarrassed as he knew very little in comparison.

Anyway, old owner even fished out 2 little remotes from the cupholders and said they were the keycards for a Cobra tracker he'd had installed - I need to do some research to work out how to transfer/subscribe etc.

Plus said he'd sell me the cars winter wheels, as he was planning to sell on ebay etc.

Even more happy now that I know the cars not some sort of dealership slaaaag, but was owned by a fellow (and obviously fairly well off) petrolhead! Great to have that provenance come with it.

Nope - I was in a rubbish bartering position as I'd phoned them the moment it was listed last Weds and put a deposit down

BUT they did agree to sort out £500 worth of ///M merchandise in the deal.........

Will post pics when I collect - happy with the purchase/deal....so far!!
