All the E85-based Alpinas are 'Roadster S' - this is to distinguish them from the E52 (Z8) based Alpina Roadster (also known as the Roadster V8) The Roadster S came in two versions std and Lux - amongst other changes the Lux had the pop-up satnav.

Wrong one - the one that's reappeared is #263, the Ionic auction is for #317

Not a lot of info about #317 - last change of owner was in June 2020, and not a forum member here or on the Alpina forums (but that's not unusual). From the photos, it looks fairly tidy (but photos can be deceptive), lot of crud in/around the engine bay and surprising amount of surface...

Yes, I saw that - presumably sticky steering fixed by column replacement

I'm sure the car is in wonderful condition but there's an almost complete lack of servicing and, even if the car's laid up and unused, it's still essential to do things like brake fluid changes. Even though it's recently passed an MOT, I'd want to hand it over to a specialist garage for a...

Just the one Ed and it came in std & Lux trim levels

I've posted the Alpina parts catalogue in the Alpina Specific section https://z4-forum.com/threads/alpina-rs-parts-catalogue.158655/

Has all the Alpina part numbers

The place that's normally recommended is CPC Performance Engineering as Phil Crouch, the owner, is well thought of in the classic Alpina community (although he does have a reputation for being hard to get hold of) I wouldn't do the HG as 'preventative maintenance' as it may never blow at all -...
