BMW's M Division has been busy in the past few years, but it's still found the time to produce an estate version of its M5 saloon. The archetypal mega-power saloon - and now estate - the M5 has long given family drivers in a hurry the ability to bomb down autobahns and blast down back roads. The latest is the greatest in the model series, BMW fitting a high-revving V10 that offers 507bhp, or if you do not need all that power you can opt for 100bhp less via a power button. <br><br> We can't understand why you'd want to though, as doing so would deny you the full BMW M5 experience. It's a quite extraordinary car, the estate not quite as quick to 62mph, but still taking just 4.8 seconds to reach the benchmark. Its V10 is mated to a seven-speed two-pedal paddle-shift transmission - perhaps the M5's weakest area. Transmission aside, the M5 remains the benchmark in the class.
