I want one .. NOW
So maybe that poll I started about whether you'd own a B5 or an M5 should be reviewed again.

The B5 in the UK is about 65000 pounds and includes HUD and Prof Nav as standard.
Fully speced up car with every option will be about 75k + whatever high grade leather you want.? Note, no longer possible to have leather trimmed dashboard top area - EU regulations concerning front airbags etc..? Shame....

Hey Hobi, that is an awasome car.
I have tried to contact you over the message think but no reply....
I see you are in Prague or Germany sometimes and I would like some help with tuning (I would buy from you). Can you help?

EDIT:
Sad to say it was only mine for an hour before Ged@Sytner took it away
? However, I did get to drive it for a while and it IS a totally brilliant car.? I came back wondering if I had made the right decision in cancelling my order for one 2 years ago...
Anyhow......

Show off. Just because pictures are as close as any of us here in the land of the free will ever get to one of these, that doesn't mean we're envious or anything.
