BMW 5 SERIES (2003-07) M5 4DR SALOON 5.0 V8 SMG AUTO
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The BMW 5 SERIES (2003-07) M5 4DR SALOON 5.0 V8 SMG AUTO is a high-performance, four-door executive saloon: spacious and comfortable like a conventional 5 Series, but built for far stronger pace. In the UK used-car market, it sits in the specialist performance-car bracket rather than being an ordinary family saloon.
mycarcheck.com has recorded 1,577 look-ups across 515 distinct VINs, a substantial sample for this rare M5. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £14,100 and average recorded mileage of 93,000 miles. The typical car has around seven previous keepers, so ownership varies considerably, while annual mileage averages just 2,000 miles in the data.
That V8 makes the M5 known for an engaging drive, while four doors and a useful boot keep it practical for trips. It best suits enthusiasts seeking a performance saloon, not budget-focused commuters or new drivers. Compared with the Audi RS6 and Mercedes-AMG E-Class, it is famed for its engine.
A used BMW M5 can hide outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, theft or mileage problems—and costly damage may not be obvious. Enter the reg now and check before you buy; skipping it could cost you.
