The success experienced by BMW during the mid-90s with the E34 M5 Touring, we believed had set a precedent that future generations of M5, would always be offered in Touring form. The M5 Touring had been missing from BMWs showroom lineup for a generation, so the announcement of the V10 powered E61 M5 Touring was met with great excitement but at one hell of a price tag.

History

The all new V10 M5 was launched in 2004 but those who desired the 507 HP estate version, had a long wait until March 2007 before BMW showrooms were blessed with the ultimate load-carrying super-saloon. Only 222 right hand drive versions were produced making the M5 Touring one of the rarest cars to leave BMW Motorsport.

The 4999cc, 4 valve per cylinder, quad cam, super lightweight, V10 motor, featured individual throttle bodies and variable valve timing. The 507 BHP and 520Nm of torque, gave levels of performance only previously seen installed in the most sophisticated of sports cars.

This all-new engine, with its DNA firmly embedded in BMW V10 F1 engines, gave new stratospheric levels of performance giving the ultimate Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde experience from this amazing allrounder.

Specification

The right hand drive M5s where only offered with 7 speed SMG gearbox, featuring 11 Drivelogic shift programs, with power being fed to tarmac via the M-Variable limited slip differential. The “Power” button on the steering wheel gives three drive programs, the “Sport” program unleashing the final 100 BHP.

The M5 chassis was greatly modified to ensure the 507 bhp was sure footed whilst giving performance car road holding at higher speeds.

Reinforced front and rear sub-frames, wider track, BMW Motorsport springs and dampers, featuring EDC (Electronic Damping Control) with three programs and adaptive dampers, larger diameter roll bars, revised geometry, Motorsport front and rear brakes and stunning 19” wheels with ride quality retained as it was decided the M5 should not feature the harsh run-flat tyres.

The interior and exterior featured new levels of cosmetic luxury and the all important Motorsport aerodynamics, with revised mirrors, front and rear spoilers.

In November 2022 we were asked to find a new owner and sold the car with 59,000 miles - where the car became part of a small collection. The owner has enjoyed 8,000 miles over the last 12 months.

A pending retirement means a reduction of cars in his collection and the opportunity to offer this 67,000 mile M5 Touring for sale.

Our Thoughts

We are delighted to offer this fantastic and fastidiously maintained M5 Touring. In long term ownership between 2015 through to 2022 and having benefitted from a 'no expense spared' ownership culture during that time.
