This 2005 E63-generation BMW M6 is a powerful and engaging modern classic grand tourer, in a svelte all-black colour scheme and with relatively low mileage from new. Under the bonnet is a 5.0-litre naturally aspirated ‘S85’ V10, producing 373Nm, coupled with a seven-speed automated manual SMG transmission with paddle shift. Understood to have been supplied new to the UK, the car now resides in Australia. First registered in September 2005, this BMW has had four owners from new and features a comprehensive service history which is documented below. The odometer shows 97,761 km, which is supported by its stamped service booklet. This E63 M6 is finished in black over a black leather interior with gloss black inlays. The vehicle features a carbon-fibre roof, infotainment with navigation, DVD and CD players and TV functionality, electrically adjustable heated front seats with driver memory, electrically adjustable mirrors, automatic wipers and headlights, dual zone climate control, remote keyless entry and start, and a multi-function steering wheel. This example has been fitted with a cold air intake system with pod filters. It rides on black-painted 19-inch ‘Style 167 M’ alloys, with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S tyres. The vehicle is supplied with its original owner’s books, the stamped service history booklet, some UK tax discs and MOT certificates, and receipts for works performed.

A cosseting and powerful grand tourer, the M6’s V10 engine is both civilised and tractable when needed, and a wailing symphony when unleashed into the higher rev ranges, this example has covered very few kilometres since its last service, and would make a fine long-distance companion for extended road trips or could even be pressed into more regular service.
