The old mans, Just popped to look at the photos of my new E30.

Thats his old E39 (now mine) and his rather nice new 530d car.

I think the E60 looks good. Everyone hated it at first, including me. But ive warmed to the looks.

E39 did look much better in its day though. And still is a good looking car, but its looking very dated next to its younger bruva' as you can see.

I'm a big fan of the E60, I'd love one in a touring, in black with the M-sport package.

To echo Jon B's sentiments. This car has really grown on me. Especially the m5. I remember seeing it on Top Gear amd thinking, it's ugly... or is it??

The designers have that canny knack.

Thats a very good question. I honestly dont know.
Its a Special individual colour.

I love the new 5 series, most of BMW's new range come to think of it.

A 535d touring with a remap would be a lovely car to use day in day out

I'm quite amased at how BMW's designers have managed to design these cars.

They ALL look cack in the pictures, but they mostly (depending on the wheels etc) look wicked in the metal.

That's fine and I'm not the first person to say that, but what puzzles me is how they drew them up on a computer where the car would look poo, printed out the piccies out where the car would still look poo, and still thought they'd look good enough to prototype up.
