    I have always been suspicious that BMW have a clone of me in a cupboard that they use for ergonomic testing as since I've been driving, every single Beemer I've ever driven has felt like a perfect fit.

    I would have to go a little old-school, and get a mint E39 M5, the last of the great, pure, super-saloons... sure the E60 had an amazing engine, but weighed 400kg more than the E39, and the E39 has perfect 50/50 weight distribution... goes round corners like its on rails!

    This one looks tasty: BMW AUC E39 M5

    BMW were on Watchdog tonight after refusing to cough up for loads of Cam Chain Snaps on badly designed engines in 1, 3 & 5 series Cars where the chain is mounted at the back thus requiring the whole engine to be removed to replace it! :eek:


    Yeah................ cracking 'Fail' that Beemer! :rolleyes:

    The Boxster/Cayman is the better drive (marginally), but the Z4 is stunning. The latest one with its shark nose (ala 80's 6 series) is a work of art. Been trying to convince my missus that she should have the big family car, leaving me clear to get a Z4, but she wont have it.

    I've been on auto trader all night looking at these, and also the E36 M3.
    I think a test drive should settle it between the 2.

    yes i could be tempted next year and they also suffer with carbon build up in the inlets due to a design flaw and can easily loose 10 percent of its power so will get both done at same time! :D

    that z4 looks lovely if i was a bmw man!;)
