Hi All - I am a new poster to this site and spotted this thread. I have been to see this car about 4 or 5 weeks back, when I was working in Coventry for a few months on a project.

I am looking for an Alpina Roadster and wanted to see what this one was like (black not my colour but to see one in the flesh was a help). The dealers are in an industrial shed just off the M6. There were stacks of cars in there including at least one Ferrari. It was a little unnerving going in but they were very friendly, gave me the key and left me alone to view - no hassling, which was nice. In the flesh this car does look like it has done the miles. The wheels need refurbing, the engine bay looks like it has been across the desert!! Covered in dust. Cant' remember the bodywork exactly but i think it had some detail scratches etc. No real dents though. Interior was in good condition. I did not check the papers as it wasn't what I wanted but as it is a one owner then could be a bargain. It would scrub up well.

It's been on sale for quite a time. The sticker in the window still said £9995 or similar. I wonder how low they would go?

I am looking for a Blue (ideally Alpina Blue) Lux roadster. If anyone knows of one please let me know. Regards Berni Cashin.
