De BMW M5 E39, for many the real M5. The one car that has it all. A sports sedan that is a fantastic combination of comfort, safety and bizarre performance. A rather modest appearance that only reveals its true nature through rims and the exhaust pipes. The perfect cruiser, that alternates beautiful long distances with sensation when you press the sport button. The duality of this car is perhaps precisely what makes it fun. A wolf in sheep's clothing. The 4.9 liter S62 engine provides 400 hp, which our Bavarian friends have also spooned into the Z8. As a car enthusiast, this is a car that you must have driven for a while. When you give it a good dose of gas, you feel the car lean backwards due to the power that is released on the rear axle. Guaranteed a grin from ear to ear, alternating with occasional shivers and screams!

The year was 1998, Saving Private Ryan came out and BMW presented this specific car in Sweden. In the beautiful classic Silverstone Metallic, that is, with a black leather interior. Since then, the car has been pampered, you can see that in everything. The brochures in which the car is named are still there, and even the packaging of the spare key is still there. The car has only changed owners a few times since then and you can still see that. A good 5 centimeter thick pile of documentation and publications about the car. When you drive and shift in this M5 E39 you feel robust German quality and extensive maintenance history. The car steers smoothly but very powerfully. Not a pin to put between them. Response but also comfort. The car has just been at the BMW-dealer where it was perfected in addition to a major service. A huge amount of power, which provides an experience that cannot be compared to a Porsche of Ferrari. It's an M5, and that's something you want to experience, something you have to experience.

Freude am fahren, that's it.
