I know one of those - pre-facelift with cloth seats, I knew it when it was new as the owner would be on a lot of the Z forum trips then.

That is a nice looking Alpina, I would not rule out getting one of those (will make my total exposure to the big engine models complete :lol: )

Doesn’t really need anything, current owner seems to have been fastidious and fussy… a bit like myself. It’s done in a Gtechnic ceramic coating, not sure which one, doesn’t go out in the rain or in winter and lives in a garage under a light dust cover.

Has a couple of very small ‘dinks’, but I’ll still have Steve from voodoo dents over at some point.

It’s a fantastic colour, which isn’t especially well captured in the photos - Alpina only specific colour :thumbsup:

I’ve spent way more on brand new/ex-dem cars before - but I think we’ve reached a fair compromise on price based on the current market (which is very slow for this type of niche car, Z4M’s etc).

I just need to formulate a storage plan for my 3.0Si as I’m not giving it away and it’s already at very attractive price point I feel.

Sounds like a well looked after and sorted motor - I'm sure you will enjoy it

No point in giving away the 3.0 - it will sell, just need to be patient
