It’s a beautiful car, the colour really makes the car stand out!
And the noise, good god... I would have concerns too, especially the bearings but the price hasn’t really reflected these.

Didn't you tax the m3 for a year? I'd drive it on till the baby comes and worry about changing it then! Your m3 looks like a seriously sorted car. While the m5 is cool you will be constantly worried about something going wrong with it. Just my 2 cents! Would love to be able to afford either!
I may have missed it but where is that E60 for sale? Have you considered an E55 or an E63 Peter or even an Audi RS?

This topic is relevant to me also me because I have my first on the way in January. I still haven't resigned myself to the need for a 4 door car at all, let alone that something like an E90 wouldn't be big enough! Tbh I was still working on the basis that my next car will be an F82 or an E92 M3 (even though I've been saying that for about 2 years)...
Thanks for the suggestions folks.
Not a fan of the f10 M5, nor the pre-LCI e90 M3 (that would feel like a downgrade), really like the LCI e90 but the right one is likely 40k+ and 2350 tax (don’t think space would be an issue but having kids you do amass a rather large amount of crap :D)
@ Ginoc, I contacted deane’s about their C63 when they dropped the price but sadly it was sold already. To be honest apart from C63/E63 in that price range I would prefer something Bavarian :)
@ Kieran, I sure did - taxed until end of February 2021 and it’s a truly well sorted and loved car which is why it’s hard to let it go unless it’s for 100% the right car.
@ Chillipepper - yep, 2 door and one kid is a pain but not impossible, not sure I fancy dealing with 2 door + 2 kids. My only concern with the 2 car approach is that it can be a false economy sometimes and you’re also never in the fun car.
