First registered in March 2003 - just don't ask me to calculate how much V-Power I've used in that time

Re: The waiting is over!
Congratulations Charles - That is a really impressive achievement. I wonder how many hours you have spent in that driving seat?

Re: The waiting is over!
when I first saw the pic on FB, I thought " ahh that's nice someone has caught 40,000k miles", then I checked the name and thought hang on a min. Rechecked and yep its 400,000k miles. That's awesome what cars were made for.

Re: The waiting is over!
Outstanding!
Never not on the hunt for a petrol Alpina Touring - B3 or B3S preferred but B5 series considered

Re: The waiting is over!
That’s a huge mileage to achieve in any car. Fantastic!
I wonder how much V Power that took?

Re: The waiting is over!
Fantastic achievement for the B3S and you, here's to the next milestone, half a Million
Re: The waiting is over!
That's not a question you ask the owner of a petrol Alpina - how rude!

Re: The waiting is over!
To achieve this milestone, may I ask if you can share with us a list of parts that need replacement at specific mileage?
I have a 300k and have compiled such a list for the dealer to ensure trouble-free mileage.
For me personally, I use the 100k as when this work takes place.
