"Cylinder head rebuild" might just be the standard 80k+ HG failure - however, that together with the gearbox & clutch would make me stay away. Good price though (for buyer, not other owners)
My normal thought would be don't go near it, flip side of that is as a 6 month low miler is it worth the risk for the ask..hmmmm..

I think this is probably a pre-prepared ex-showroom car, or specifically built for someone who wanted an Auto, with the Alpina looks. There seems to be too many of them around to be anything else, as it just doesnt stack up financially for anybody to go to those lengths privately on a car with a flimper interior spec.
By the seaside...

All major stuff done under AUC warranty would surely be a plus not a negative :? + same owner for 8yrs another plus
Id be more put off by the seats , they look battered for 80k
Black paint & exterior cover also brings out a klaxxon for me :| imagine those swirls & haze :thumbsdown:

True enough Andy but why has it had all those problems? Not your normal cars life, smacks of a Friday afternoon car, they never seem to get straight. Still, no way of knowing, you pays your money... :roll:

With gearbox, clutch, and cylinder head rebuild, sounds like Mr Le Bon drove it like it was stolen..... :roll:

Now sold, someone's got a peach. I guess it just shows a cars worth what someone is willing to pay for it if they're not looking to make on it any time soon. Rarity and a top spec, that was a lovely one.
He's also got a 17k M roady in. Flimper spec and just shy of 22k.
