These figures are provisional
The deposit, the excess and the mileage terms for this car come from our catalogue data, and we are confirming that data with the insurer while the fleet is finalised. Read them as the shape of the terms rather than as a quotation. What binds is your written quote and your hire agreement, and we check the specific car against the specific driver before you plan around it.
The deposit is refundable and held against a card in the hirer's own name at handover — it is not taken online and it is not part of the rate. Deposits, excess and driver criteria
About the BMW M5 Competition
Its 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8 makes 616bhp through M xDrive, reaching 62mph in 3.3 seconds, and it will switch to rear-wheel drive on demand. Five seats, a 530-litre boot and 12,000 miles a year included. We arrange this one through a vetted partner, so the rate is a guide until the car is confirmed. Delivered anywhere in mainland Britain.
616bhp, four-wheel drive and five seats in a car that reads as an ordinary 5 Series from fifty metres. The quietest way to travel very quickly.

What is the BMW M5 Competition like to drive?
Deceptive. In Comfort it is a large, quiet saloon that soaks up a motorway and carries four people and their luggage without complaint. Put everything in Sport Plus and it becomes something else entirely: 616bhp, 750Nm from 1,800rpm and a gearbox that hits shifts rather than slurs them. The Competition sits lower and stiffer than the standard M5, so it is firm around town, and that is the trade.
How much does it cost to hire a BMW M5?
Each day includes 200 miles, matching the most generous allowance we publish, with extra miles at 95p. A £2,000 refundable deposit is held at handover and the insurance excess is £2,000. Minimum driver age for this car is 25.
Is the M5 the right hire car for a business trip?
It is the one to take when the car should not be the story. Five seats, a 530-litre boot, and a shape that draws no attention in a client car park, combined with performance that makes a 250-mile day trivial. The 200-mile daily allowance means a week of driving between sites rarely triggers an excess mileage charge, which is not true of anything else we hold.
Can you switch the M5 to rear-wheel drive?
Yes. With the stability control fully off, M xDrive offers a 2WD mode that disconnects the front axle entirely and sends all 616bhp to the rear wheels. It is a track and closed-road feature rather than a public-road one, and our hire terms say so. On the road, leave it in 4WD Sport, which is quicker and considerably less exciting in the wrong way.

Provisional. The age, licence period, points tolerance, deposit and excess above are being confirmed with the insurer while the fleet is finalised — read them as the shape of the criteria, not as a decision on your hire.
If you are under the minimum age for this car, or short on licence years, say so when you enquire. We will point you at something you can hire rather than let you find out on the day.

Questions about hiring the BMW M5 Competition
Can I hire a BMW M5 at 25?
Yes. For this car the driver must be 25 or over, with a full licence held for three years or more and no more than six points. The refundable deposit is £2,000 and the insurance excess is £2,000, both lower than our supercars.
How many miles a day do I get with the M5?
Two hundred, which matches the most generous allowance we publish on any car. Additional miles are charged at 95p each. If you know in advance that a trip needs more, tell us at enquiry and we will price the extra mileage into the quote rather than settling it afterwards.
Is the BMW M5 Competition four-wheel drive?
Yes, M xDrive, and it is rear-biased in normal driving so the car still behaves like a rear-drive saloon. It also offers a full rear-wheel-drive mode, which is intended for track use rather than the public road.
