Slightly more interesting, but still not my choice.

An M5 Performance. 1 of 30.

All the whistles and bells including HUD.

Not sure about Matt Red paint and Blue break calipers!

A snip at only £95,000 each ! Enjoy, or not, as the case may be...

Not sold on the matt red either, just looks like an ageing Vauxhall which always seem to develop really flat paint!

The matt paint looks unusual but, to look after it, you have to remove bird droppings or squashed insects within 30 nanoseconds, you mustn't wax it, polish it, touch it without gloves made from unicorn hide etc. etc.

Requires more maintenance than a trophy wife :?

Mmmm, not for me...... :cry: but at the price you would assume that it would have matching coloured calipers,

Matt red, more like flat red :lol:
Needs to be shiny red with half red/black leather to break up the interior and match the rest of the car, then it's a thumbs up

You can tart up a trophy wife but you can't tart up that paintwork. Does nothing for me - er, the car I mean, not the trophy wife. :lol:

I'm going to be in serious trouble if her indoors reads this - which she will. :oops: :oops:
