M20 is happy in the 80-90°C region - mine runs 80° until it need the fan and mostly sits at 85° after that.

I seem to remember M50's running quite hot based on the one in my granddads old early model E46 320. But that may have been an issue with his car, went to the dealer a few times because of it when he first got it. Although 120 is a bit excessive !!
