I voted E34 being as it was a 535i Sport that opened my eyes to BMW's in the first place. E39 is a very close second though.

i've got an e28 and e34 but would say the e28 has more of an old school appeal to it the e34 is 4x4 though

If i had someone offering me any M5 from any era it would take me an age to choose.

Mind you i have been looking at the 540i on a Y reg not sure what model it is but i like it

That would have to be in order of age for me. Oldest being the best looking imo. The e34 is the best all-rounder for a mix of old-skool cool with new-skool comforts

E28 for me, with the e12 a close second, I actually did not like the e34 when it came out first, but it has grown on me over the years, still don’t like the look of the back of it.

E34 overall, but E39 in M5 guise is quite tasty.

Thats a difficult one as I've owned a E34, E39 and currently have a E60. I nearly bought an E12 many years ago but it was too far gone. Suppose if I had to make a choice it would be the E34 as it was my first BMW and was a 518i in Island green, beige interior and hub caps or shall I just vote for the E60 as it seems to have no fans at all?

or the brand new one!
That'll be the F10 then. :D

BTW, I have CDO and would have preferred the poll sequence to be in chronological order, rather than random. :lol:
