Top Gear - BMW E34 M5 review by Hammond

Its fun until the fuel pump calling out

540i grille on the “m5” ????

I got this car as a project i even posted a video does any one know much about this cars im trying to shed a light about this m5 i have bmw dealers can be bothered to explain much

Series two?

There is no way that is an `88 with that wide kidney grille. Try `94-`95.

What’s a “cocker”!

5.9 secs to 60mph sound like a later 3.8 M5 which were not in production in 1988.
88 M5's had the 3.5/3.6 litre engines which i think were about 6.3 secs to 60. Correct me if i'm wrong?

how is it a 1988 if it has a wide grill that only came on 1994-On?
