About the BMW M5 E61
The BMW M5 Touring (E61), sold between 2005 and 2010, is one of the rarest and most coveted M cars ever built — a genuine V10 super-estate produced in limited numbers. Its S85 5.0-litre naturally aspirated V10, shared with the M5 saloon, produces 507 hp and revs beyond 8,000 rpm, paired with a seven-speed SMG automated manual and rear-wheel drive. Adaptive suspension, an active differential and a spacious, luxurious wagon body make it both a family car and a thrill machine. With far fewer Tourings built than saloons, well-kept examples are highly sought after. This manual covers the E61 M5 Touring in full, from routine servicing to complete engine and SMG overhauls.
