Interesting advert- saw it come up on Instagram/Twitter etc

Would love a car like this- my E30 325i touring still puts a smile on my face!!

Nice car. :thumbsup: Can't say I'm into the way it's being marketed, but hey ho, the owner is just trying to get as much as they can for the old steed. :roll:

So is it THE Chris Harris or just A Chris Harris?
Is it his car or did he just own it at some point?

The Chris Harris, he's one of the major backers for the collecting cars auction site.

I don't know why he's claiming the ride comfort on this lowered version is better than the genuine article as the genuine article has adaptive suspension and rear ride height adjustment based on the load being carried.

If he found the genuine M5T too 'hard' then I'd suggest something was broken/disabled.

I bet it's got the small brakes too...and being the 3.6 it will be down about 30hp/lbft - although it will rev a little faster - which will make no difference with the extra weight of the touring.

If I could afford the purchase price, or maintenance costs, I have bought a proper LHD 3.8 Touring or an RHD Alpina B10 4.6 Touring.
