Hey guys, I currently have a e60 530i

I'm looking to buy an 2008 M5 in the next few days, it has about 25k. What are the things and common issues I should look for when testing out a pre-owned M5?

TIA

Nottoo many responses here I see. I'd recommend you go to the M5board.com and search the forum. There is tons of information for potential buyers there.
