Thx Pingu. If there is the problem of oil leaks and wishbone only, that's fine for me. I tried bmw 330ci before and it need to fix those stuff also. It's also same regular items for bmw. I just a little bit worry about the smg and clutch for m5. By the way thanks for your advice!!!!
I don't know how reliable is the SMG in the M5 but looking at the forum in the M5 topics it looks OK
I know that the car is very cheap now but do a bit more home work before you buy it and when you do, I love to have a go in the MD or ND
