not surprised really.. like those guys know anything they probably wrote down all the bmw models on separate pieces of paper then drew them from a raffle box

I noticed today on MSN.co.uk they have an article about the top 10 greatest BMW's and don't mention the e34.

I can't believe they could have done this.

Horrified

What do they know???

This is just marketing BS. The E34 made the 5-series what it is today. BMW must have understood that. Yes, the 3 series in E36 made the most amount of money for BMW due to the volumes but their 5-series segment was "carved" up by the E34 into the E39 and E60.

Heck, I would say, the most funky BMW would be the MZ Coupe (my favorite little car), and it has "hidden" muscle... with 6 speed manual. wowie...

Who cares. Its only MSN.

On the web you have all the choice in the world, you don't have to read that crap. Mostly Shite News. Dunno why you read it, by definition it has to be crap as its run by some of the largest vested interests in the world for expanding their own influence and to get paid to jam ads (some might even say disinformation) in front of the populace; it has nothing to do with news whatsoever.

Whatever you do don't write and tell them, it won't help or make the slightest bit of difference to anything that matters.

Brodee's suggestion has my vote; it'll be far more accurate.

I was fixing my Mum's PC and when IE was re-installed it went there on it's own. That was when I sawc the article.

All the best

Well, at least the old 6 & 8 series made it.

Gotta love those two!

Ludicrous just plain ludicrous , everyone knows the E34 is the best bimmer ever!!!! That's my story and I am sticking to it.

C’mon, these guys are not talking 10 best........when 10+ years old.
Talking a newish (under warranty) example.
And in that perspective the e36 is a sure winner. As many can vouch i happen to have an ultra clean example so there is bias, but......................
The car has ‘sport’ balance in spades, i’ve been driving alot of ‘sports’ cars lately and the only one it couldn’t hang with would be a Honda S2000. And as a 15 year old design it may not be cutting edge but it still doesn’t look dated, inside or out.

For those that a 5er is a little too big for and won’t be track junkies (which is what rips the rear), a 4door 3er is a perfect ‘do it all’ car. I could even see myself lookin out for a clean M3/4 or converting Rolf someday.


”Hang up & Drive!”
94 BMW 530iT&A 125K, ‘Helga’ (for sale yet? no *grrrrrrr* but getting warmer)
92 BMW 325i 120K, ‘Rolf’ (he’s baaaaack *woohoo* time for tunes)
91 Volvo 745T 194K, ‘Thor’ (13 psi *smirk* no power steering *grunt* )
93 Datsun NX2000 165K ‘Carla’ (alive, thumpin MP3s *grin* Hers *sigh* )

Either they're clueless or they're just trying too hard to be different. I think it's the latter. They pretty much ignored everything before the mid 80s. 328, 507, Neue Klasse, 2002, 3.0 CSL, Z1 etc... BMW built some great cars since day 1. I think including the X5 and Mini was just done to stir up the pot - too ridiculous. And 3 Series Compact???? This is why I don't use the internet anymore... M Coupe's an interesting choice though.
