Description
FREE DELIVERY, Full BMW main dealer history, supercharger replaced, just had cosmetic re-commission, absolutely sublime example of a super-rare Alpina
Alpina B5 Saloon
"H1" 4.4 V8 Supercharged. Hand built, forged crankshaft, Mahle Pistons, custom Alpina block. Alpina conservatively quoted 500bhp - every car dyno'd recorded 520-530bhp+.
6-Speed Auto
0-60mph 4.6 seconds (most journalists recorded approx 4.3 to 60 in reality)
195mph
A monumentally fast car that is significantly more reliable than a V10 M5, and a lot quicker due to easy access to the supercharged torque (we've owned dozens of both cars and can speak from experience). They will even keep up with F10 M5's....

Ultra-rare car, almost all motorway miles hence the incredible condition throughout and lack of wear.
Full BMW service history from new, 22 service entries! Last serviced December 2019 - Inspection 2 with all filters and spark plugs. Recent discs and pads.
Correct oil filters fitted (not 550i items). Genuine BMW with invoice
HPI clear. Will come with new MOT upon sale.
Mechanically as sound as you will find. Not a single squeak or rattle - rides as quiet as a 7-Series but ballistically fast when necessary. No smoke - valve stem seals all good. Silent tickover indicating a good supercharger and this N62 engine revision corrected the timing chain issues of its forebears.
Just had brand new front arms (all 4) plus drop links, new track rod ends and some other small bits to bring the car up to standard.
Wheel alignment
New header tank from Alpina (common fault as they split along the seam)
New rear trailing arm bushes x4 (Lemforder)
CCV diaphragms replaced
Gearbox serviced - run for a week with new fluid and filter then fluid and filter changed again to properly flush (less than 50 miles since this was done)
Diff oil changed (Castrol)
2 owners, Extremely well maintained. Just had cosmetic recommissioning - front end repaint to remedy stone-chips, alloys refurbished (Michelin Pilot Super Sport tyres and new centre caps) and a full professional detail by Finer Details Ltd.
Bodywork is pristine - not a hint of rust anywhere. Interior in similarly good condition. Viewing essential. 2 owners, new MOT, 3 month warranty, recent Inspection 2 service.
I could write an extremely long ad regarding this car but it would be easier for you to either call with any questions or view in person at my indoor premises.
Plate not included and car has now reverted back to FJ06 JHL
