FRANCE - Lille

This original French BMW E28 M5 Lachs Silver combines rarity and exclusivity, being fitted new with the Pack-M Technik, BBS wheels and leather interior found on the French versions.

Eager to have a mechanically perfect car, its current owner didn't hesitate to spend €40,000 to give the engine, identical to that of the M1, its full voice and potential. The running gear and mechanical components were also completely overhauled.

A road test confirmed the car's exceptional level of performance.

This BMW M5 was delivered new in France, by the Yvelines dealership, in March 1987.

It is one of the 588 cars sold in Europe, with the famous engine fitted to the BMW M1, and one of the last produced (this example benefits from various improvements: on-board computer, electric windows, shock absorbers, new anti-roll bars, large wheels...).
It's a fourth hand car, with a totally clear history and 150,000kms on the clock.

Fitted as standard with the M-Technik Kit Pack (option code 715 including spoiler, rocker panels and rear skirt), air conditioning, leather pack and autoblocker, this M5 has just undergone a major overhaul, with all mechanical components restored or rebuilt:

- Complete engine overhaul (new pistons, liner, gaskets, cylinder heads, etc.)
- Gearbox and rear axle opened and completely renovated, new clutch
- Complete renovation of running gear: epoxy arms, springs, shock absorbers, discs, brake pads, hoses, silent-blocs...
- New radiator, spark plugs, all new hoses, fuel tank, fuel pump, stainless-steel exhaust system, new TRX GTB tires

The total cost of the overhaul (carried out at München Legend Car) is around 40,000 euros (invoices available).

ORIGINAL CONFIGURATION :

o Color: Gray metallic - code: 203 Lachs-Silver
o 854: Option code France
o Black leather (standard on French version)
o 715: M-Technik kit (rocker panels, spoiler, rear apron, spoiler) standard on French version
BBS TRX wheels, diameter 415 (standard on French version)
o 350 : Green athermic glazing
o 530 : Air conditioning (standard on French version)
o 510 : headlamp adjustment

Given its technical characteristics at the time (247 km/h for a sedan) and its confidential distribution, this BMW M5 is the youngtimer to own par excellence, and there are few examples as closely followed as the one we're offering today.

Complete restoration file and invoices available on request.

The initiator of the long line of M5s, the first of this name is also the rarest: only 2,241 examples left the factory between 1984 and 1988.Over the years, it has become one of the Bavarian company's great classics, but nearly forty years ago, the combination was absolutely unheard of: in fact, fitting the legendary 24-valve six-cylinder of the former M1 sedan into the body of the 5 Series E28 wasn't particularly intuitive at the time. With its 286 hp, the car instantly became the most powerful of the "mass-produced" European sedans - even if, on the same basis, Alpina offered even more explosive machines.Still a joy to drive today, this first M5, which is also an accomplished highway cruiser and knows how to pave its way on demand, above all allows discerning enthusiasts to taste the torrid joys of unfiltered driving, ESP still being science fiction in those days.And what charisma!
