+1 for e39 M5. £15k gets you best in show. 2003 model will have nav, bluetooth, auto everything etc...and that engine! (again aware it's not a coupe).
6 series looks good but is very small in the back, been stuck there a few times and it's not much fun!
Cl55 still looks the business, if you can put up with the running costs.
random shout for you...3series coupe? the 330d or 335d are decent tourers, agile and also do 30-40mpg. £15k would get you a bmw used approved one.

I like the E39, but just fancy something different.

I've added the E55 AMG to the list now, more headroom than the CL and no ABC suspension to go wrong. £13K ges a 2004 model with all the toys.

I got dragged round furniture and appliance shops this morning, so I'm going shopping next weekend hopefully

[Hammy]

Well, a deal has been struck and a deposit paid. I'm now the owner of an E55 AMG, being serviced and prepped next week for me to collect next Saturday. Damn it's fast!

Good choice, I still miss my CL55 the power and the fun

Enjoy..

Gotta love insurance, it's actually cheaper or me to insure the E55 than for my modified (but older, cheaper, less nickable, less powerful, slower) Volvo. Genius.

Maybe they think it is a 220cdi taxi?

[pvr]

Or they thought that E55 AMG was just a numberplate

[Hammy]

Just heard from the seller, the scratch and a small scuff on rear bumper are done, being serviced Thursday. Should pick it up Saturday morning.

Currently this is all I have...



You can see the size of the front brakes though, 360mm discs with 4-pot calipers.

The cars currently soaking wet, but have a cople of teasers, I'll do more later once it's dry (and hopefully in a more photogenic location than my driveway!)

Not much room here...

A gentle warning...



There's 2 more of these on the other side...
