Description

Here for sale is my 2012 BMW F10 M5, which I have owned for around 2 years. It has 5 previous owners and full service history. An F10 M5 was a dream car of mine, so I spent a long time finding the right one. It's a well-specced example with Comfort Seats, Head-Up Display, DAB, reversing camera, sunroof and more. It has been used as a weekend car during my ownership, SORN'd and stored indoors over winter. Whenever not in use it has been kept on a battery conditioner. Under the previous owner the car suffered infamous rod bearing failure, resulting in a full engine rebuild by GND Motors at 88k miles, with ARP bolts fitted. I don't have the invoice, but I do have a comprehensive photo album of the rebuild and warranty card. Since then it has never gone more than 3k miles between oil changes. It is now due an oil change based on time rather than mileage. Shortly after I bought it, an injector fault caused DME issues. Both DMEs were rebuilt and all 8 injectors replaced with Bosch units (BMW's OE supplier). It also had new air filters, coils and spark plugs at the same time. Around 1,000 miles ago it had genuine BMW discs and pads fitted. Rear tyres are around 1,500 miles old. Fronts have tread remaining but are getting old and will likely need replacing. Battery was replaced around a year ago. Various other hoses, pipes and small items have also been replaced. The paintwork is factory original and, to the best of my knowledge, has never had previous paintwork. It reflects the 96k mileage and has some imperfections, all shown in the photos. Interior is similar used but presentable. Mods are limited to carbon exterior trim (original chrome included) and sports cats. It remains completely standard power and has never been mapped. Faults: There is a slight steering wobble at 70mph+, despite a 4-wheel alignment and balancing. I believe it is a buckled wheel and will have this rectified for the asking price. One headlight gets some condensation after washing Private plate not included, sold on WG12 KMX. I will personally conduct all test drives due to a previous bad experience. No more than 2 people viewing. No PX, bank transfer only. A very reluctant sale I had intended to keep this as a forever car, but personal circumstances have forced the sale. Not desperate to sell and no offers over the phone; happy to discuss in person!
