This popped up in the sun this morning



I think its possibly an old e28, the sun turned round and said its either a 3/5series then posted a picure of an M535i :/

Better guesses?

Could be an old E24, I think.

Well it definitely can't be an estate as suggested in The Sun because BMW didn't start building estates until the E30 & E34 generations and this car is definitely not one of those.

With the indicator set into the leading edge of the first wing it also cannot be a E12 or E28 and it's too big to be a E21. Therefore my best guess is that it is either a E23 or E24, and I'm leaning to the E23.

Hmm, I'll take a leaf out of your book here.
