Hello,
I've been a member here for well over a year and thought it time I post some pics of my Alpina. Having owned various MX-5s over the last 10 years (including a couple with forced induction) I was originally looking for a 3.0 E85 but succumbed to the punchier and better spec'd Alpina, which I've now owned for 14 months.
Despite being immaculate and with FSH, buying an exotic variant is always a higher risk. I'm pleased to say, I've used it everyday and it hasn't missed a beat with no gremlins at all (excl recent broken spring which I'll mention below).
The pictures below are actually from the previous owner (I'll post some newer ones up soon!). In my ownership I've done the following:
- 4 wheel alignment & oil service at Simpsons Motorsport
- Clear rear lights (painted red outer circles)
- Clear side indicators
- De-gingered xenons and added angel eyes
- Stubby aerial
- 4 x Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres
- Black front grill
