The Appeal
The first two generations of the 5-Series were good, but the E34 was very good. It is the car that seriously kick-started BMW’s executive car reign. The V8 540i is the choice of aficionados.
The M5 may be quicker, but not by much. Instead the 540i is loved because it blends 282bhp urge with the sort of cossetting luxury that executive buyers value.
This smart burgundy metallic 540i is proof that these cars are engineered to run and run. Likely that is also thanks to its excellent service history, which has covered routine as well as preventative maintenance over the years.
It arrived in Poland from Germany in 2015 and has been serviced and improved ever since. The high factory specification and valid Polish technical inspection certificate are further reasons to jump in and enjoy a very good example of one of the 1990s finest executive expresses.
