There you go, hope you enjoy the pics as much as I enjoyed the event. I think I've got every Alpina that turned up that day. Some very special metal in attendance - from the lovely E30s to the brand new B5 BTs and everything in between. And the top people that own them, all passionate about Alpina.
Thought this was noteworthy:

Roof spoiler on the new B5 BT - to direct air over the sunroof, given the 200+mph capability of the car and the airflow issues caused by the sunroof!!
And this from my D5 BT en route:

Whatever negative things that get said about the devil's fuel, a car that can do 52mpg and has 350bhp/700nm is still deeply impressive in my book.

Hap, no I didn't take it. I've got it booked in soon for a mechanical inspection and mot, then I'll use it more when I know all is okay. At the moment I just potter about locally or just enjoy looking at it
Metrics, sorry, I should have made more effort to introduce myself to other forum members.
I think my Golf is a great package, practical but with super performance without shouting about it. And before anybody says it, yes I know, that sums up Alpinas too. I like my Golf and I love my B3s.

No worries. Great combo of cars you have there, good taste. How thirsty do you find the R in daily use?Cygnet wrote:Metrics, sorry, I should have made more effort to introduce myself to other forum members.

Re: alpina
For the record, theALPINAregister.com (this forum) is officially endorsed by ALPINA Gmbh and ALPINA UK, which I guess makes it the official ALPINA club in the UKNorrie wrote:.. there is not an ALPINA Club GB, perhaps it is not warranted? What do Sytner want if anything and what does ALPINA Germany want if anything?
