Another Alpina wagon. 400hp 550Nm N54 twin turbo, gentleman's express. And the wife and dog! This one truly rare, as 1 of 3 UK cars (1 black, 1 silver and this one).

Lovely. And rare as hens' teeth. I tried to find an Alpina 3 Series back in the day but gave up and went AMG in the and.
I had a relatively common (12 in UK) b3sbiturbo coupe in the recent past too, so knew this was worth waiting for when a good friend was selling.

Quite quick enough when required, autobahn friendly (185mph), dog friendly, not overloaded by engine weight on the front axle and well balanced. Alpina know how to sort chassis dynamics and ride, too. It'll do.

Here's mine, love a fast wagon. RS6 Performance, owned from new, closing on 40k miles. Very fast, too fast probably, but love the thing...

Cheers guy's. I felt it looks cleaner without badges and smaller plate, so the eye is drawn to the huge arches instead

Oh my giddy Aunt. What leather colour does yours have? Red is one of the colours I'm considering.

Would love one of these, some one who visits my neighbour every now and then has one in a purple/blue colour it’s stunning in the sun sounds great rumbling past my house.

Love the alpina above as well just watched shmees video on one with a lovely spec would have no idea how brutally fast they are unless your clued up on your motors! If I ever have £100k spare....

That really looks like a serious weapons grade ballistic projectile. Solid stuff!

That must be incredibly rare, an Edition 507 Estate in red.

Afternoon all 1st post on here, here's mine
Very cool. I recently watched Shmee's review of these and it instantly went to the top of my fast estate wish list
