Newbie saying hi.

Post by Spud » Mon Apr 25, 2022 8:42 am

I'm new to the world of Alpina ownership but not BMW or e85's, this is my 5th. Finally picked this up yesterday after a 3 week wait. It was an 11 hour round trip but you're almost always going to have to travel for cars as rare as these.

Nice one, Spud, and well done Geeon. We used to own the same combo of colours with our #167. The red seats and door cards do lift them immeasurably.

Enjoy your new car!
