Oh feck me!! Alpina boys gonna get me.

Never driven one,always admired them,long gone are the days when i worry what people think of my car, M3 just too extreme for me nowadays (must just be getting old) plus them there performance figures do it for me!

oh and i want something DIFFERENT!

Picture 1 it looks like a regular BMW.

Picture 2 a lot garish, like a few tins
of paint have been spilled in there.
Yellow in the footwells looks very silly.

Picture 3 white seats - hardly practical
for most kids in the back seats ?

Different folks like different things,
but I think I'll stick with black thanks.




I think this the whole point of people going to Alpina,When i got my E92 M sport 335d Coupe a couple of months back,i was one of the first to have the M Sport ..................Now there all over the place. You just won't get that with an Alpina which is kinda what i am looking for i guess. ( + a great Car )

Spoke to Ged Scanlon at Sytners Nottm,he said they would get full spec and costings by the end this month,to spec they take a 10% deposit(non-refundable)frown looking at around £46k which to me, seems good if compared to the M3 ????

First cars to arrive Feb/Mar.
