B8 Spotted A1 southbound.

It's got so popular I thought it deserved it's own section.... Share your sightings and Photos of ALPINAs and not quite ALPINAs<br/>

B8 Spotted A1 southbound.

Post by Geoff » Wed Aug 29, 2007 12:50 am

On Saturday evening on the way to Peterborough was passed by a B8 (Alpina blue or darker Orient?) Number N819 BFL, doesn't appear to be on the register. As these are as rare as rocking horse sh-t was it real or a fake? It certainly looked genuine. Anyone else seen it?

It checks out as real on DVLA's website or at least its engine does.

Chas, it was either a coupe or saloon, I saw the B8 4.6 as it came past and then concentrated on remembering the reg.

As my wife keeps telling me... "men can't do two things at once" :lol:
