Hi
Anyone know where there may be a 2003/60K mile car for sale under £15,000.
(Seen a car and made above offer to a chap who is undecided if he will sell it to me at this price - he did not say no, so far at least).
Thx

Are you choosing between an M5 or a V70?

Got an E39 M5. It trounces the T5, BUT £ for £ the Volvos are better value.
Restricted budget for the Volvo. Thought of getting a D5 and chipping but too many people on the forum have D5'd for a spell only to go back to the T5.
If could find the right T5 (black + cream) which has all options would buy it, but lack of real choice hence may as well go the R route.

Got to be manual.
Prefer Black with Atacama, but realistically not fussy about colour if buy an "R". May even buy "kermit green" !
Unfortunately, limited by budget as do not want to sell other car(s).

Good, as i was thinking i know which one i would have. Saw a few at BRands Hatch a few weeks ago, impressive machienes. My dads got a 530i tourer in the light blue and im trying to persuade him to get a matching M5!
I think i saw a really nice v70r in silver somewhere, i'll see if i can dig it up for you.
Good luck with the search!
Dave

Definately go for the T5, I do regret selling mine and getting the tractor, even if the tractor is fully loaded...

If you find a V70 R manual get it, theirs very few of them.

Believe me - Alcanatra and Silver is a "desired taste" but at the price......
