Love this colour, especially on the E31.

I wanted a Barbados B10 3.3 manual with an individual interior but I don't think such a thing exists.

It's pretty individual interior I thought

That's an ex forum members car, I'm pretty sure. That colour and interior stick in my mind.

Found it.

Used to be owned by Olli, used to be on here and over on bmwland.

Also found this thread on the car. A pretty unique vehicle, and certainly one that sticks in the mind.

Yes asim i remember now the name i think he lived leicester way on before and the thread you found is a goldmine of knowledge he clearly spared no expense and looked after it with recent genuine alpina suspension purchased
This motor needs buying onlynhas a few rust spots to sort and be spot on

Definitely hap, the cars been loved for sure. Over Â£2000 spent on genuine Alpina suspension, proper servicing and regular oil changes and enthusiast lead maintenance approach. And I think previous keepers were the same, really looking after it. A good buy I reckon.

My old car, really sad to see it go. Replaced it with an e90 D3 Biturbo #472 so staying Alpina. See how I get on with the devil's fuel 😀

A credit to you, not many cars get used so much and maintained so well.

Wish you well with the D3.
