BMW 5 Series E34 Review Article. So today I'm with a BMW 5-series e34 my first ride in the BMW 5-series I believe this car is from the year nineteen ninety-four so this is an older car and you know I really like older cars you know why? because i think they have character... let's be honest here in this climate in the Netherlands with all our rain and and bad weather if a car survives for more than 25 years it is doing a good job i'm telling you i don't know if i said this before but this is the first time that i'm actually driving a BMW.
I remember as a young kid I used
to have like a model car of a BMW and I
don't know that was a 3-series or five
series because it's been ages but I i
distinctly remember having like a small
model car..... yes I'm going off here I
yes I'm
driving a BMW.... what was I saying oh
yeah I was a big fan of that car when I
was a kid I was like when I grow up I
want to have any BMW yeah and then i bought
a Lexus... oh well, no but in all fairness BMW
always had like the special sort of
feeling to me I mean sort of an
exclusive feeling and I know like
nowadays it's not really that exclusive
anymore to drive a BMW because let's be
honest especially like an older model
BMW is not that expensive to buy but
probably is expensive to maintain
They have some sort of special kind of
class I don't know, like the
grill, the nose that the whole
appearance of the car and just sort of
gives you like this classy sort of
feeling. An older BMW especially
something like an e34 5 series is
always going to have that special sort
of feeling that is why I'm very
very happy and thankful that I'm given
the opportunity to review and drive this
car today
another fun fact to mention is that the
owner of this car has since 2006 which
means you have the car for like 11 years
now i think that that's awesome how many
people have a car for that long?
this car feels so smooth to drive
the only thing which is not very smooth
about it is the steering.
The owner told me this there's a lot of
play in the wheel
I'm on the highway now I wasn't really
planning on going on the highway but
it's just sort of happened... sorry. this
line of e34 was introduced from 1987
to 1996 and came in a variety of
engines the base model being the 518
which was a four cylinder and funny
thing that was only available in europe
going up to 20, 25 and 5 30 there even was a
540 with a v8 and of course the m5 with
also a V8 this being the 525 is actually
the most produced car of this lineup so
the 525 was the most popular so this has
the 2.5 litre straight-six engine with
192 brake horsepower and should be able
to do zero to 60 in about
nine and a half seconds so about the car
how does it drive
well let me tell you aside from the
steering which is a bit wobbly and the
owner told me that these cars are known
for this is like a known problem with
the steering being very loose
and the mileage is also kind of
impressive be honest it has 370 176
kilometers and I don't know what that is
in miles you do the math... oh and the brakes
are new
he said, so yep the brakes are nice
also i really like the looks of this car
I love the looks,.
I mean those round
headlights those bulky square looks it
screams nineties i know it's like a
total nineties car maybe not everybody
like this but for me I love the look of
this car nowadays cars, they all look so
so streamlined everything has to be like
streamlines like very very sort of
round and whatever happened to those
bulky square looking cars from the
nineteen eighties in the nineteen
nineties i want those cars back
It even has BMW phone by the way if i
showed you this and then you get this
BMW phone... hello it's 1994 calling hello
you know what I totally get why the
owner has kept this car for so long you
need to cherish this man you need to
keep this car and cherish it, and also
this proves to me that it is possible to
own a sort of semi classic car BMW with
high mileage and still feels great drive
this car really puts a smile on my face
yeah of course I know BMW with a manual
transmission is probably more fun if you
want to be doing crazy stuff like
drifting and whatnot but for me I mean
this is not the kind of car that you
want to be doing that with any way in my
book me a car like this with automatic
transmission
it's just so comfortable and nice to drive
it's shifts very smoothly again old car 90s car
high-mileage just like smooth as
butter steering.
