And I’m now the Proud owner of number 204.

Delighted with the car, even if the closure of the M5 meant too much traffic to properly enjoy the drive home.

This one will be staying :D

I know, but I spent far too long following Alan about in his lovely Alpina and then started looking…

My Mrs has told me I absolutely must keep it… I have been told. Been over to see Alan in it this evening, I love it!

That looks fantastic. :thumbsup:

And it's great to see a colour other than silver or black! Apart from Perry Gunns red one I've only ever seen silver or black Alpinas.

The only thing I would change are the lights. I can see the rears are still the old ones, can’t see the front. If those are changed to 2005 type, that would look fantastic.

The darker colours really suit the Alpina

Funnily enough Alan and I were talking about that earlier this evening.

It’s completely standard except for a gap-tech and Bilstein B12 kit.

Had a lot of preemptive maintenance and also had all the brake lines replaced.

My immediate plans are to get out to a few meets in it and enjoy it, but lights may get updated for the cleaner look :thumbsup:
