BMW M5 Wagon With McLaren F1 Engine Stored For Decades

For those who know, South African born Gordon Murray was the man behind the legendary and iconic McLaren F1 but when he approached BMW’s M division to help build one of the most iconic cars the world would ever see, engineer Paul Rosche took the reins for the engine.

Rosche’s final design was the monster 618 hp (461 kW) 6.1-litre V12 called the S70/2. BMW needed to test this creation and, according to former McLaren road car director David Clark, they did just that with the help of the world’s coolest wagon: an E34 BMW M5 Touring.

According to Clark, BMW still has possession of this car in its secret stash of test vehicles that never quite made it to the road. As far as we know, it’s not something that the public has had the glory of witnessing.

The origins of this 2000 Mercedes-Benz E320 Wagon – pickup truck – are somewhat murky but its regalness is not. What a thing.

We have a civic tourer, and we love the looks as it can pull off being mistaken for the hatch.

Station wagons once used to be all the rave, but nowadays only three automakers still offer them in their line-up.

What a beauty

I only found this thread today, makes me miss my Audi B6 A4 Avant S-Line despite it having the marmite 1.8T 20v in it.

I had a A6 2.6 Estate and then later a A4 1.8T Estate or Avant as they were known. They were both Audi'ish in many ways. Aircons packed up fairly quickly and electric windows were dodgy.

What years were they? I am not sure about the aircon issue but electric window issues are a commom VAG issue from around 2000 onwards. I had minor issues in my 2005 VW Polo, 2004 Audi A4, 2015 VW Golf and my 2014 VW Touareg.
