Hello, would it be possible to add a start up video from cold to demonstrate the described high idle and hunting for the first 60 seconds?

What is meant by “Largely original, tidy engine bay”? Are all the original Alpina engine items present?
What make of battery is fitted?
What caused the damage to the driver’s door that required repainting?
Thank you.

Was this not sold on Collecting Cars recently? if so why up for sale again?

I own one of these in Alpina Blue, and I know two other local owners and their Roadsters well. These all sound like a bag of spanners on a cold start. I’ve never timed how long they take to settle into a normal idle, but if you view one and it idles smoothly immediately on start up it’s been warmed up before you got there.
