I have a 1991 BMW 525i with 200,000 KM on it. The front end starts shaking when I try to slow down from speeds above 90KPH. What could be the problem?

You may have warped disc brake rotors. This will cause your car to shake when braking. Also, check your front wheel alignment as this will also cause wheel shake. It is also a good idea to check your tire air pressure and tires.

If it only does it on the brakes then its probably warped rotors, have the tires inspected to see if ones seperating
