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 lick

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 smile
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".

Yes they are.....all stamped up on the back.
I believe they're forged. I did consider 19's but of course I would then have reps so decided to tyre these up and keep em.

Just had the roof painted black. Well I prefer it anyway, and it needed doing one way or the other, as there was a bit of grot on the leading edge

Are you back or still there, Monsieur? Any 'success'?

Lovely 8er OP, and there are some other stunners in here too.

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.

Well spotted.
There seems to be some parts locked though? Or am I being a thicko?
