Nice, with halo cars like this, I think us petrol heads would love another 10 minutes of review time, as 99% of us will never get to experience a car like that… Well done Sir 👍🏻
Great review as always. This is what il be getting when the lotto numbers eventually come in. I love everything about this car . 22mpg is not too bad , I had an Impreza STI back in the day that could only achieve that and that was only a 2 litre with only 280bhp
Brilliant review as ever Nobby, had to laugh at both the squeaky bum moment you had in the car and also the indicator stalk comment, it'll not matter in relation to the indicator stalk as BMW drivers never use them! 😂😂😂
Irish petrolheads have paid through the nose for high-performance cars for decades. We were due this!! Now could everyone please stop advertising the fact. We’ll have Eamonn Ryan & Co with their placards outside BMW dealers yet. 😂
Perfect car to get from Bonn to Frankfurt on the autobahn. But not sure any of us need 717bhp to drive around in commuter traffic! Still, I get it - it’s what an M5 comes out as in 2025 when the EU limits every bit of enjoyment ….. 😅
Mark. Thank You for putting the record straight. This M5 is AWESOME! Incredible feat of engineering. Amazing. BMW " magic"! This example of Fire Red is stunning! Buy any day over so called Supercars. Yes Ferrari, Lambo etc....looking at You! BMW at its finest. That said surely the Touring has to be the one?. Looks even better. Great review as always. 👍👌💪
It’s the illuminated grill that makes it look naff. I’ve had 10s of BMWs, currently in a f82 m4 comp. There is no way I’d drive a bmw with an illuminated grill. People hate us as it is
0/10 from me. Alarming hearing it nearly catch you out at 20kph unexpectedly, particularly when you own a 911, I.e. experienced in a tail happy machine. Maybe the addition of the extra torque from the electric motor is causing that. Nice to see the price come down though. Great review.
Tyres would’ve been cold and I’d probably rather have something like that on Pilot Sports, whatever about pushing it on through a bend but the leaving the house time was mad.
@@NobbyOnCars I noted some initial slip on cold tyres but it’s producing an avalanche of torque so low down the range that it requires a recalibration of one’s foot.
You wouldn’t give it zero out of ten if your drove it. The hate this car’s getting online is truly amazing. Moreover in an Irish context. It’s literally designed for Ireland.
@mlann2333 serious money for an E39 these days. I had a little encounter with one many years ago in my E92 M3. Unfortunately for me, the guards weren’t far behind us and heard the noise 🙈
Sadly it’s not for me, I feel like the M3 looks better, especially in estate form and the horrible / rubbish piano black plastic driver section is truly awful, so sadly a big no for me 🫣
@ I didn't drive but it has to be good, no matter what, it's m5. By rubbish I ment only interior of the car compare to F90 and in my opinion whoever designed the interior of this car did a poor job. Quality and design is like any other average car. :(
@ I would rather spend more money for special car with M5 should be as little bit less and have M5 with interior no different as in Kia or Peugeot. Compare to F90 interior quality and design is shit :)
@@robertk-fj2ikYou think it should cost less, are you mad? This thing is putting out 815hp on the dyno and is €140 to tax. To say the interior is ‘shit’ is simply trolling.
I just love the looks of this M5, the price as well
Nice, with halo cars like this, I think us petrol heads would love another 10 minutes of review time, as 99% of us will never get to experience a car like that…
Well done Sir 👍🏻
Wasnt mad on the looks when it launched same with the m3 but they both have grown on me and the new m5 especially in black looks so good.
Black with those calipers... nice
The best looking M5, just love the look of it
And someone else will say it’s the worst - mad how different people just like different designs
@@NobbyOnCarsif we all liked the same things in life it’d be a boring world, variety it’s what it is all about in my very humble opinion
Saw one at European car sales with the m carbon kit.Its stunning.

Never driven one of them would you believe 🤯
That some mother fudder of a car , it’s deadly looking, great video noddy especially as I drive them roads often that you reviewed the car on
Brilliant review as ever Nobby, had to laugh at both the squeaky bum moment you had in the car and also the indicator stalk comment, it'll not matter in relation to the indicator stalk as BMW drivers never use them! 😂😂😂
Was hoping to see this comment and wasn't disappointed haha!
A very good and balanced review Nobby. Fair play to you.👍
Thanks for watching!
Irish petrolheads have paid through the nose for high-performance cars for decades.
We were due this!!
Now could everyone please stop advertising the fact.
We’ll have Eamonn Ryan & Co with their placards outside BMW dealers yet. 😂
I saw one in real life last weekend. 251 reg, it looks menacing
blue?
For instant torque and straight line performance wouldn’t the I5 M60 be a better performance choice? However, that sound 😍
Not the same overall package. Great straight line though yeah!
Beautiful car, great review.
Thanks! 👍
Does the new M5's have 'Laserlights'??
Just commenting to commend the shoe game Nobby 👌. Great review on a great car too 👏
I think the 550e Touring will be the sweetest. Hopefully they will sort out interior quality in the LCI
Ah there’s something an extra layer above with this as much as I like the 530/550e.
Looks incredible

gonna get this color for the m2. it looks amazing

Good review Nobby, E39 for me. Don't know what to say about this one.

@@NobbyOnCars😅
“Why The Drama Internet?” - something you can say about 99% of the thumbnails and content on here!
Why actually its called M5, with ‘M’, not B5 or W5..?..
Because it’s from their M Division
@ o thats why..ok 👍🏻any new model yet this year from B or W division..?.
I heard Eamon Ryan ordered one 😂
@@doorrob could lie back in that rear seat and fall asleep comfortably
G80 anyday❤❤
Sadly it’s not for me, I feel like the M3 looks better, especially in estate form and the horrible / rubbish piano black plastic driver section is truly awful, so sadly a big no for me 🫣
M3 tourer 👌🏻
I was about to buy this car and interior put me off… is rubbish compare to previous model.
Did you drive it?
@ I didn't drive but it has to be good, no matter what, it's m5. By rubbish I ment only interior of the car compare to F90 and in my opinion whoever designed the interior of this car did a poor job. Quality and design is like any other average car. :(
Nonsense.
There’s nothing wrong with the interior.
If you want to spend 200k for nicer leather, off with ye!

I just think that whole generation of 5 series is awful looking, saying that not a fan of the current range of bmw.
E60 still the best looking 5 in my book. People HATED it when it came out.
@NobbyOnCars will always be the e39 for me, i still want one of those. Plus the sound it makes. That e60 didn't have a lot of love alright.
I find this interesting because as far as I’m concerned only the E39 looks better than this generation
@@howie2084buy the one from @m539
@@NobbyOnCarsyeah with the worst engine ever , most unreliable
Ugly as hell. Last gen 5 series was peak BMW design
I’ve driven that one as BMW put one on for us but I don’t think I’ve ever seen one of them on the roads here
idrive was the best in the business and they ruined it with all the touch screen bs. They only have themselves to blame for their downfall.
Still has idrive albeit it very loaded with apps
Not a fan to many curves!
That might be one of the ugliest bmws ive ever seen and thats saying something
The ugliest BMW ever produced.
Ugliest M5 ever inside and out
How much petrol did you use for this review 🫣. It's a weapon of a car, not sure you'd be able to relax in the wet 😂
Close on a quarter of a tank. I don’t think the tyres help but I’ve pilot sports on my 911 and I’ve still managed to have a few hairy moments
