Here's my list of the past:

1975 BMW 520A - sold
1989 BMW 525iM - sold
1990 BMW 525iA - stolen
1990 BMW 525iA - sold
1995 BMW 525iA - sold
1996 BMW 528iA - sold
2000 BMW M5 - written off in hi-jacking
2005 BMW 530iA - sold

And the present:

1975 BMW 520A - yes, another rusty old nail - owned since 2006
1976 BMW 530MLE - my beautiful classic girl - owned since 1993
2000 BMW M5 - my daily beast and, yes again another one, had to go back after loving the previous one so much - owned since 2010

And the future:

Another BMW 5 Series, take note of my list, only ever owned Fivers. Hopefully an e60 M5 lies in my future, if the damn recession leaves me alone for a while, allowing me to make my foolhardy decision.
