Pvapour said: always had s soft spot for the 8 series, think yours looks very nice in particular shrew, my first choice of wheel was always the 3piece bbs but your Alpina wheels look  always thought i'd get a V12 but the V8 seems universally preferred even though it wasn't BMWs flagship, I can understand it being liked, I think its the same engine that's in our 4.4 RR? a corker even in 3 tons of metal. anyways, nice cars chaps  Cheers chap. Pics were taken just after we 'spoke' online. Had a great trip, all the way to Spain, but looks like we've decided on a B&B in the Lake District. Thanks for all the help anyway! The Alpinas were on the car. I too love the Style5s but now so expensive. Either badly refurbed with painted rims plus the fact I think the 18" wheel suits the car better than the 17".

milu said: That red one stands really nice. I've just bought one. Doing a few jobs on it but it's basically ok. Need to get my roof done too and did consider black or maybe a wrap but as my car is orient blue its probably best left as is colour wise. See you've signed up to the Clube31 forum.
