They are very different animals. M's have more outright power, Alpinas ride on a wave of torque. Hope to meet you on a meet up sometime. Whereabouts in the UK are you?

I'm in Tetbury, so about an hour away. Not sure on the Lakes meet for personal reasons at home. I might be heading over the bridge in #69 in June though.

Just search for exclusive roadster club and you'll find the thread :)

Now that the pictures are bigger... I can see that you require a smaller aerial. Commonly known as a "stubby" :)

Let the modifications commence :thumbsup:
