⭕ VEHICLE SUMMARY

Exclusivity coupled with mind-blowing performance and refinement.

Officially recognised as a standalone manufacturer, Alpina takes BMW’s core foundations and transforms them at its Buchloe factory, where engines are hand-assembled, and interiors are custom-trimmed. By harmonising BMW’s hallmark refinement and reliability with Alpina’s signature torque-heavy power, the brand carves a unique niche from an already talented series of vehicles.

Having tuned and converted the 3 Series since 1987, Alpina has cultivated a prestigious relationship with BMW offering discerning customers a high level of exclusivity. Adhering to a philosophy of understated elegance, the fourth-generation 3 Series (E9X platform) is widely regarded as the sweet spot between modern reliability and classic driving dynamics.

The B3 S BiTurbo is propelled into supercar territory by its 3.0L N54 twin-turbocharged straight-six, an engine enhanced with Mahle pistons, uprated cooling, and the intuitive Switch-Tronic gearbox. This creates a driving experience that is both punchy and smooth, retaining all the practicality and ergonomics of the 3 Series.

First unveiled at the 2010 Geneva Motor Show, this 2011 example is one of the most exclusive iterations ever produced; it is believed to be one of just 25 RHD E93 convertibles ever built. Finished in 'Alpinweiss' (Alpine White) with a black leather interior, it has covered only ~51,973 miles and boasts an impressive service history. As part of a private collection, the car comes from two and a half years with our vendor and is accompanied by the original owner’s wallet and booklets, two sets of keys, and a fresh service completed in April 2026. With an MOT valid until August 2026, this rare Alpina is ready and waiting for its next custodian.
