I used to be an underwear model and now direct pornographic movies........if only!

I'm a doctor and am trading in my 2005 E60 M5 for a 535d M Sport. Like most people here I work very hard for my money (in the UK docs don't make as much as in USA).
I deserve a nice car and the 535d MS ticks more boxes for a family man like me that also enjoys to drive than any other car.

I'm really looking forward to the new car and its the first time I've ever bought a brand new car

Actually I don't work hard at all. I certainly don't deserve this car. I've had to reduce all my employees hours, introduce drastic pay cuts and in some cases even let people go. Just to get my hands on ambient lighting.

Someone warned me about the BMW options list when I first started looking and I have to say that once I started ticking those boxes something had to give.

That's nothing! I've been injecting my patients with water rather than the life saving chemotherapy they think they are getting in order to get the professional nav!

Every time you buy online I get a penny in my account ! Trying hard to make it "every time you login to 5post"

In fact this is my very first;
- Brand New

Having had a 1992 Honda Civic, 1996 Laguna I and 2003 Laguna II, I am over the Mn with my hard earned 520
