Is this just a quad exhaust conversion and Ebay Alpina badges? Im guessing so but isn't doing the exhaust quite a job?

Yes, it's a quad conversion with M rear bumper and alpina badges. There was never an alpina coupe.

Looks well done, though the handbrake either needs adjusting or the cables almost had it.

Front bumper looks out of line

Front bumper looks out of line

Probably had paint (unsurprising, the low front attracts stones and road debris) and re-aligned incorrectly. They're a bit of a pig to line up, it's a lot of trial and error.

Edit: just had another look and it seems to be ok. Maybe the front wing bumper bracket has sagged a little and needs replacing, to bring the bumper up a bit.

Could've done with an alpina front bumper if they went through the effort with the badges imo
Also the alpina wheels

Maybe they think the Alpina badges increase the value because £11k for a 100k+ miler is silly money!

Stupid money is the Rix Motor Company's trade mark. I think they literally look up what's CAP full clean retail and add another £3k to very average cars! They have a terrible reputation too, both locally and on the Web. I've heard of tricks like listing cars at 80k when in fact they got 89k and then saying yes it's fair it's 80 something! Listing cars as Full service history that have part history or non at all with excuses like "we are just waiting for the book to come back from the dealers, we will send it on to you." Of course you will! Just Google them, the nets full of horror stories about them, certainly one dealer to avoid.
