    As a former E39 M5 owner in the UK some thoughts to consider:
    1) What state is the double vanos in? The system also adds a lovely rattle on start up hot or cold when it's tired. The Vanos can be rebuilt and for sensible money
    2) Timing chain and guides can be done in situ if you remove the cooling pack.
    3) If you are taking the engine out seriously consider a full bottom end refresh as worn bearings can accelerate bore wear, and if the bores glaze, that's the end of the block because being all alloy with nikasil bore coating there are no machining options and there are no new S62 blocks out there. Also get new engine mounts, they're dynamic and often have long given up being dynamic by now.
    4) Front bumper shell is the same as the stock sport models, only the lower grille is different. (I had an '02 E39 530d Sport Touring before the M5). A good used front sport bumper shouldn't be mad money!
    5) Unless those after market dampers are high end seriously considering getting the oe spec alloy bodied, they are seriously good bits of kit.
    6) While the rear diff is out for a seal refresh check the state of the bearings and the clutch plates in it. Mine were shagged. The gearbox output seal needed doing too as when the prop came out so did all the gearbox oil with it!
    8) Check the wiring loom where it goes through the hinges into the trunk lid. The PVC sheaths on the wires go brittle, crack and then the copper wires inside work harden and snap leading to all sorts of fun and games...and small fires too...
    9) For your amusement I still have a genuine E39 M5 rear diffuser...one with a removable centre section for the genuine BMW M5 Westfalia removable swan neck tow bar that I also still happen to have! Unfortunately, like me, they're in the UK...
    I still miss my M5 today, 5 years after selling it, it was an event each time I went out for a drive. But what I don't miss is the daft 'M' tax for parts that weren't exactly unique to the car...

    This is the Hoovie’s Garage tat caused us to start watching way back when. We’ve got a desirable car that has seen better days and the price for which he paid is reflected. A car that is attainable for most of us. Hoovie uses a trusted mechanic to restore it to its former glory all while he documents and shares and Hoovie can turn around and sell it for retail value, if he so chooses. I don’t know if this is profitable for him from a views perspective, but it’s what I love.

      I agree with you -- this is what makes his channel work for me. I assume he makes enough money from RUclips views that he makes a profit in the end, even if he only breaks even, or even loses a bit, on the car itself. Plus the value of E39s is only going up from here. I think with this one, he'll be good, even if he has to spend a bit more than it's worth right now.

Motor and trans are great if you ignore the normal BMW oil leaks, flat spots on all 4 tires from being drug onto a tow truck or something. Suspension...needs work. Lots of sloppy ball joints, and bushings. Not to mention I'm a bimmer noob and jump started it from the battery and that made the navigation screen backlight go out and temporarily got it stuck in German and metric. But, I'm a mechanic with another vehicle and I'm willing to do the work because I love that damn Bavarian bastard.

The motorcycles have been absolute tanks that just go and go and don't need much beyond basic maint. The cars however can be a bit of a pit. They are amazing to drive when everything is right though and is why I keep buying them. My two E60 v8 sedans were just sublime up until the 100k mark, then the repair bills can start to add up pretty quickly. My e46 3 series have all been a bit more reliable as long as you know to keep an eye on the coolant system and do the proper upgraded parts. Plastic cooling systems don't make sense to me but that's what BMW uses so you're going to have failures.

If you have the cash or in this case video views, and/or the time, skills and tools to keep them up they are IMHO some of the very best cars ever made. Ultimate Driving Experience, for sure.

    As a fellow owner I would recommend that for the clutch you get a clutch and flyweel for a 850CSi (v12), (correction) it is a direct fit and UUC sells the kit and its a lot stronger than standard clutch the car came with.

    This is a hoopie that definitely deserves saving! Those M5's were peak 4dr sedan driving experience.

    Brings back so many memories of my E39 M5 - stay away from the replica bumpers unless you have a good body shop because the replicas are off in size. They might have gotten better over the years, but it will need some shaping. You can get the trim pieces on Ebay in true Hoovie fashion. The other cosmetic issues can be had there as - all in great/mint condition at times. The timing guides are something to def address, but while you are in there....might as check the VANO$ along with the oil leaks. My ABS did the same thing and is pretty easy to address. This is the perfect Hooptie rescue mission!
    My M5 bit the dust when someone thought would be fun to run a red light.......:( I will live vicariously on through you in this project as family life prevent me from getting back into the game
    One last note - Be on the look out for two issues you WILL see with a higher mileage M5, MAF and SAS failures. Yes, you can replace them...or you can just tune the car :)

That car is still around (as many of my familys old cars becuase we are very bad at scrapping or selling our old cars :D) and still starts and drives even after standing still for like 10+ years. Great car. Still looks modern. Same colour as your m5. That silver never gets old. Good cars that feels so good to drive. My brothers 523i e39 is automatic and as a daily driver it cant get much better. Also one of the first cars i ever drow after getting my drivers licence.

Outside electrochrome mirror glass alone was £280 to replace after a stone was pinged through it. And a simple exhaust bracket - £80! Once the suspension started getting noisy I knew it was time that someone else took it on, but I had three glorious years of the M5 V8 soundtrack!
