We were hoping to bring you a local test of the new BMW M5 around about now. However, the car that was due to become the press vehicle was bought by a certain local car lover straight off BMW’s Dubai Motor Show stand.

So whilst we wait for the boat to come from Germany with the new press M5 onboard, let’s take a look at a group of M5 buyers getting the first chance to experience the car at the hallowed Nurburgring in Germany. Certainly looks like a nice trip!
