BMW M5 is soooooo iunreliable though.
The Jag is every bit as fast and a far better all rounder.
Easy to tune too.Change supercharger pulley (£200) and get an extra 50 bhp.
More refined too...by a long way.

Very very expensive to maintain though.
Been there and done that.
Bought an XFR and its just as fast but much easier to live with.
Prefer the Jaguar.
