BMW M5 Touring E61 5.0 V10 SMG (2007) - Black Sapphire Metallic | As New

When enthusiasts talk about the most iconic sports saloons and performance estates ever built, the name BMW comes up almost immediately. Since the 1970s, BMW has built an unrivalled reputation with the models from BMW M, the motorsport division responsible for some of the most legendary high-performance cars in the world.

The BMW M5 (E61) belongs without question to the absolute highlights of that history. The E60 Saloon and E61 Touring were produced between 2005 and 2010 and have remained unique to this very day. Where modern M5s rely on turbo technology, the E61 was powered by a pure naturally aspirated 5.0-litre V10 engine: a powerplant inspired directly by BMW's Formula 1 programme of that period.

With 507 hp, a maximum engine speed of no less than 8,250 rpm and a sensational soundtrack, the S85 V10 is one of the most extraordinary production engines BMW has ever developed. The combination of a high-revving V10, rear-wheel drive and the characterful SMG transmission turns every drive into a unique experience that is no longer being built today.

More exclusive still is the Touring version. The BMW M5 Touring E61 was produced in only limited numbers and has since grown into a genuine collector's car. It combines uncompromising performance with the practical usability of a spacious estate. It is precisely this combination that makes the E61 one of the most beloved modern classics in the BMW M world.

An exceptionally well cared for example

This BMW M5 Touring from November 2007 truly is in as-new condition and ranks among the finest examples currently available.

Finished in timeless Black Sapphire Metallic, combined with the exclusive Merino Schwarz leather interior, this M5 radiates exactly what BMW M stands for: sportiness, elegance and understated luxury.

The car was originally delivered in Sweden and, since its first registration, has demonstrably enjoyed a particularly careful life. With just 106,641 kilometres on the clock, this is moreover a highly attractive example for the true enthusiast.

What really sets this M5 apart is its exceptionally extensive service history. Virtually all the known points of attention on the S85 V10 have already been professionally addressed and thoroughly documented. As a result, this car offers not only a fantastic driving experience but also extra peace of mind for the next owner.

Recently replaced items include:
• Clutch
• Connecting rod bearings
• Injectors
• VANOS high-pressure line
• ABS pump
• Brake lines
• Battery
• Air conditioning pump, filter and condenser
• Throttle actuators

In addition, the bodywork remains almost entirely in its original paint, something that is particularly rare on an almost twenty-year-old high-performance BMW and further underlines the originality of this car.

The ultimate V10 experience

Anyone who has ever driven a BMW S85 V10 understands immediately why this engine has by now achieved legendary status. The engine builds its power silky smooth until, beyond 6,000 rpm, it comes fully to life. Its character then changes from powerful GT into a pure racing car.

Combined with the SMG transmission, this delivers a driving experience that barely exists in today's automotive world. No turbos, no artificial sound and no filters; just pure mechanical drama.

That is precisely why interest in the BMW M5 E61 continues to grow around the world every year. Well-maintained examples with a documented history are becoming ever scarcer and are by now highly sought after among collectors and enthusiasts.

As new and fully documented

Buying a BMW M5 Touring is all about trust. That is why the extensive service history of this example is of inestimable value.

The car is in exceptional condition technically, visually and cosmetically. The carefully maintained exterior, the beautiful Merino leather interior and the extensive documentation make it clear that this M5 has always been treated with love.

This is a car for people who understand that some engines will never be made again. The V10 in the M5 is the last true party before the turbos arrived. Before electrification began. Before everything had to sound like a vacuum cleaner with ambition. This engine screams, sings, wails, and does so without a trace of shame. And it does it while carrying four people and their luggage.
