You're moaning about the cost of your VW Polo and you're gonna buy an old BMW? Great idea

He wants to buy a battered old wreck of a German saloon from the 80's as he believes it will be cheaper to run than his current Polo. It must have a slanted grill.

The 6 Series as above is what most think of as having the 'shark nose' front. I'm pretty sure older 3, 5 and 7 had them too though

Yup, E28 5 series.




E12 5 series.




Thinking about it, the '114' 2002 BMW started it all.
