It was surprising just how many of these we saw on the long motorway runs to Scotland and back.... seem to be a very popular motor :)

Spotted one of these today in a small car dealer on the way to work and I was surprised how cheap they are at that age.. on paper at least (I've never driven one) they seem like an ideal replacement for the Omega..

Very nice, an LCI model as well  :y

I do like the E60's, best 5 Series IMHO.

Very nice motor, health to enjoy it. I wonder what these are like for parts, had an E36 before which ended up upside down in a field and the cost for parts was scary!!

If you mean body parts, expensive. Servicing parts, not so bad, contrary to popular belief.

That's driving me crazy , can I ask where the photos were taken ?
I installed and maintained telemetry systems for D&G  Regional Council for many years and recognise that Church but cannot remember where it is .
PS ...... very nice car , I wish you good times with it .
