This is a beauty with a nice looking spec and colour combo, asking top money for a private sale.

Seems to me like the vendor is trying to get some of his money back due to work that has been done.

Lovely car that's clearly had some £££ spent on it.
Very similar spec to my car, although with the full rhombs through the seats. Will be interesting to see if it sells at that price!

Very nice spec. With e39 M5 prices on the up this car with low miles is a great alternative.

Beautiful car...some odd things like the blue cam covers but nice all the same.

@rc944 remapped box must have been a special request similar the touchtronic :think

Sold for 10k apparently at Coy,s auction. Looks like the original asking price was beyond optimistic.

If that is right I believe that's a good buy for someone. Let's see if it reappears.

Does anyone have definitive proof this one actually sold for £10k at Coys? Their site is still pending sales results and the original advert on Car & Classic has been renewed at £27k again.

Isn't the fact it's Switchtronic, the remap? Alpina have their own settings for that don't they.

they remap the normal Drive settings also. You can lean on the engines torque more without the box dropping down and the box tends to get into top gear a lot quicker than normal is just 2 notable differences
