I'm keen she finds a good home but I really need the space now rather than the money, so if a genuine enthusiast comes along and wants the car, then I am sure we can work something out.
Good luck with the sale, just a word of warning that the last seller with similar sentiments who wanted his B10 to go to a 'good home' found a dealer selling it for an extra £2k within weeks so please try not to let a dealer get it cheap!

Not sure if Caesar Bob or similar would be able to dig up any old posts from a previous owner on here??

I have fresh pictures also which I'll try and get uploaded but the car WILL now be going on other mainstream sites over the next few days as well.

Cheers all,

David.
Hi David - I did direct a previous owner who was looking for his old car to this thread a couple of weeks ago. Guess hasn't made contact then. He had #049/1 from 2004-10 apparently.

Thanks Bob,

Not had any contact that I’m aware of from a previous owner, but people do get nostalgic and have good intentions sometimes rather than any real ‘intent’...... :wink: but thank you for the referral either way. I have the bill of sale to the 2nd owner from BMW as the car was sold as an AUC car with 2 years extra warranty in 2004, and the name on that bill is definitely not the chap I brought her from in 2010, so at a guess and from what I recall from the previous owner, I’d say the chap who put her on the register was either the 2nd owner shortly before he sold her in late 2007/early 2008, or the 3rd owner (who I purchased the car from) just after he got the car at the same time roughly....either way, the car has great provenance and no “ murky” gaps in its past where it has been unloved or bounced around between dealers..... like a few seem to end up doing these days.....

Hopefully this sort of solid history will appeal to a serious buyer.

@ Avtar - glad your sorted with work again sir. I’ll get some images pinged over to you soon.

Cheers, David

The B10 is now up on Autotrader and I will post on a couple of other sites also over the next few days to see if there is any genuine interest out there.

Plenty of room to negotiate if anyone is seriously interested, but if I end up keeping her through the summer and ticking off the last few cosmetic bits to make her absolutely mint...it won't be the end of the world either! :D

Cheers,

David.

A Bittersweet day......

I'm sad but content to report that B10 V8 No. 049/1 has gone to her new home today. I literally couldn't have sold her to a better new owner - it was in fact the previous owner that was mentioned earlier in this thread that got in touch via the Autotrader advert I put up (less than 2 weeks and sold!), viewed last weekend and collected today.

Not sure if he is a member on here currently, but I'm sure he will be along and also owns a beautiful Silver Grey coloured D5s (light/cream interior) - no.49 also - lucky chap.

I've had an amazing 11 years with her, and the new owner will attend to the cosmetic bits that need doing and give her a very happy "retirement" I'm sure.

Again, very bittersweet....but I'm sure I'll be back in an Alpina again soon enough.

Cheers,

David.
