My big German V8 barge.

Here is my Alpina B10 V8, thought I'd throw a few pictures up

It's a lovely car to drive, very comfortable and relaxing, but bags of power when needed! That said it is very thirsty, and not as fun to drive as a hot hatch. So she is up for sale

That interior is pretty special

Standard Alpina, garish but exclusive

Somehow the fact that its an alpina seems to make the interior okay :/ lovely motor OP. Hope you enjoy it.

I must say that it's not my taste at all, but as you say because it is an Alpina it sort of works!

I do enjoy it, but its just a bit unnecessary for my needs at the moment, so I'm selling it

That's pretty cool, I've just picked myself up a 540. First luxury car and absolutely love it.

The B10 is very similar to the 540. That was the car on which it is based. They are both great cars

Oh He's selling it! Normally ppl post when they get it

Oddly I usually post up in here just before I sell a car... almost as if saying a farewell! Never noticed a trend before. This car was gone about 3 days after posting this!

What price range if you don't mind me asking?

I'll aim for £4000 and see what happens

I must say, I do like this thing. After another week with it I'm considering keeping and sinking some money into it.

Good point, I assume someone preferred the Sport bumper.

According to the previous owner and some people on the Alpina forum, it was specified by Sytner as it was their show car. The red Recaro's are also for this reason.

Why in god's name did they think that wood and that hideous red interior would go well together?

I know, it's dreadful!

It's for sale, search Alpina in ebay. Should pop up instantly.

It's worth noting that it's up for sale purely as an experiment/interest thing. I don't mind keeping it as I'm really enjoying it.

Took it to the PH Wiltshire meet today and would you believe another one turned up!

keep it!

I've only ever kept one car/bike for more than 6 - 12 months. I'd be surprised if I kept this longer!
