Description

The BMW E34 - the Complete Story by James Taylor is a comprehensive guide to one of the most iconic cars of the 1980s. With over 180 photographs, this book takes you behind the scenes of the BMW E34 5 Series, a car that dominated the executive saloon market for eight years and remains a benchmark today. From its debut in 1988, the E34 range was designed to challenge Mercedes-Benz's dominance in the medium-sized saloon class. The result was a sleek, sporty shape and a range of powerful engines, including highly regarded diesel types and later, an entry-level 4-cylinder option. Over its production life, the E34 underwent three major eras of change, each bringing new models, technologies, and innovations. This book explores the full story of the BMW E34, from its development to its eventual retirement, and includes lesser-known details about the car's use in hybrid power systems, convertibles, and other experimental projects.
