Solido S1814801 M5 Touring review: wagon presence with simplified carbon

The blue M5 Touring is a large wagon-shaped display first. It is a less convincing choice if the purchase depends on close inspection of carbon-pattern trim.
Separate the dark parts from the patterned parts
The blue M5 inspection finds much of the supposed carbon treatment represented by plain black surfaces, with patterned mirror housings standing apart. Dark color is not the same thing as a visible carbon weave.
- Black-and-white cabin panels provide contrast when the doors are open.
- Dark rear glazing reduces the view into the back of the wagon.
- The sampled glossy paint shows mild orange peel; glossy does not mean uniformly smooth.
The catalog lists opening doors. It does not establish an opening tailgate, so buying the Touring specifically to arrange a cargo scene would need further confirmation.
The European models hub separates this modern wagon from the roadsters and sports-car subjects in the collection.
Pros & Cons Analysis
See the source attributions and review limitations below.
Pros
- The light cabin panels give door-open viewing some visual contrast within the substantial Touring body.
Cons
- Most dark trim lacks the pattern seen on the mirrors, weakening a carbon-detail close-up.
- The inspected paint texture is a sample-level compromise, not a proven fault rate.
- Dark rear glass limits how much of the wagon interior can be appreciated from outside.
Choose the Touring outline before its trim texture
S1814801 suits a collection that needs the modern M5 wagon shape. A carbon-detail or cargo-access display asks more than the present evidence supports.
