1999 E39 BMW M5 5. 0 V8 SALOON
Strong Service History - 111K
Royal Red/ Caramel Heritage
The Next Blue Chip M Car
111, 000 miles

Pre delivery inspected by BMW GB on 10th May 1999 this is among the very first
of the E39 M5 models within the first run of fifty M cars to be UK registered
and spent the first 10 months with the supplying dealer as one of their own
cars. Finished in gleaming Royal Red coachwork, this superb M5 (E39) was an
original BMW UK Ltd Press Car and one of the first to be made available to the
UK market. It is Chassis No. 50 and was made within the first month of production
and specified to the very highest level with more than £6, 000 in options. This

Optional Specification
All M cars had a high standard specification, however this M5 has been further
complimented with the options below.

* Royal Red Metallic
* Caramel Heritage Nappa Leather
* Bmw Nav Pro
* Xenon headlights
* Electric Glass Sunroof
* Electronic Steering Column
* Window Tints
* BMW Phone

History & Servicing
The vehicle is 100 % stock with no modifications whatsoever, which makes
it an extremely scarce model to find now and all the better for it. Total
originality, all panels are the original items too as it left the factory.
The body is poker straight, no accident history and clearly been enthusiast
keepers and those prepared to spend. 10 stamped engine services plus running
in service plus pdi, 12 in total though this is the tip of the iceberg.
Supported by a confidence inspiring thick wad of bills a summary of which
I have detailed below together with a complete MOT history.
Crucially some big jobs such as the Vanos and fuel pump have been replaced
by main dealer at considerable cost (detailed below). In the last
few years Castrol Edge 10w 60 has been used.

The E39 M5
E39 M5 has it all and more and is/ was a truly defining M car for Bmw. This was
no pseudo-super car, the M5 was to be the daddy of the super fast sedan and it
was by a country mile, very few other cars with this amount of lethal power are
as harnessed or drivable as this, whilst still retaining that essential scare
factor. The sound from the engine is fantastic beyond 4000 rpm, and they sound
amazing just poodling around too.

Genuine unmolested solid examples are now gaining ground fast, its the last of
the analog manual 5. 0 V8 cars, which time is now starting to reveal as quite
possibly M road cars at their best, this car combines an excellent history
first and foremost, with a visually striking and complimenting specification.
The E39 embodies all that is the M dynamic, very much a vehicle that has been
used, serviced cherished and stored by enthusiasts. Totally standard and never
altered.
