E34 M5s, are great cars. Tough, reliable (apart from the Nurbergring suspension, which dies every 70k miles at a cost of £500 per corner), fast, understated and they have one of the finest engine notes known to man (or woman).
I could tell you stories about very high speed drives on the triangle in North Wales but, as you are a policeman, I wont.
They are approaching the bottom of the depreciation curve now and they are definitely a future classic (I sold mine for £2k more than I bought it, but spent £2k making it perfect).
Go for a 3.8l as it is torquier than the 3.6 but it is still a hell of a peaky engine, not easy to live with on the daily grind. If you intend to commute it, dont get one.
Consumption varies from 10mpg (on the triangle) to 26mpg on a motorway run, which ain't bad for an old school monster.
Handling is superb, very predictable drift machine, the main let down is the recirculating ball steering which is a bit lifeless and numb around the centre.
All IMHO of course.
