List to do and in no order as such...
Small dent on door to be sorted out and front bumper respray
Pixel dash display to be fixed, not bad but common problem on E39's
Upgrade from 4:3 to 16:9 TV and also nav to MK4
Ipod/Iphone install (Intravee more than likely) as have Parrot currently
Clutch/flywheel in the next few months along with supersprint exhaust and x pipe
Leather repair on drivers bolster and general treatment of leather
Upgrade rear lights to 02 and change interior lights to LED and number plate
Upgrade xenon lights
So far, I have got my oil sorted for the next two services & top ups in between in a group buy. Ordered new interior titan dash trim, OEM mat set, splash guards to replace broken ones under front bumper and various other small pieces to clean car up. Stuck on some German plates and BMW driver surrounds (Cheers Ken!). Thanks to Warren (Manlord) for car cover and well worth investment as have dirty birds in my driveway!! (Swallows!)
Full service history stamped book from new with a stack of paperwork including MOTs/NCT and main dealer receipts also. Very well minded by previous owner with two local BMW indys in Cork.
Cheers to Martin and Richie for advice on M5 ownership and looking forward to it!

love the car
let me know how you get on with the bolster repair, i need to get over to cartronics for mine and wondering how much hassle / time is involved

That's a class car, it used to be always parked out on the Western Road, I used to see that car pretty much every weekday as I'd be going into town in the evenings to get home.
Didn't have the German plates last time I saw it though.

.Great looking car - enjoy
Beauty Philip....very jealous...my ideal car!
By any chance is your on board computer reading and outside temp of -40? My old 523 did and I believe the sensor is in one of the two splash guards under the front bumper...usually breaks too, if they get broken!
Best of luck with the beast!

Great to see you finally got the M5 Philip, I remember you always said you wanted one once you sold the 530d.
Best of luck with it!
