I apologise if the owner of this car is on here but PLEASE ......... NOOOOO

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2004-BMW-Z4-2-2I-SE-MERLOT-RED-ALPINA-BADGED-/110644369275#ht_1680wt_922

I particularly like the line :-

*IT'S BADGED INSIDE AND OUT AS 'ALPINA 3.0S' - so looks like exclusive super rare model without the expensive price tag and petrol costs, etc.

Not knocking the car but why the badges and why say it looks like an Alpina. I might go and buy a set of Ferrari badges tomorrow.
 
He seems to have forgotten to swap the indicator badges and alloys aren't Alpina either (not necessarily a bad thing), neither are the seats, steering wheel trim....it's just a Z4 with some 3 out of 5 Alpina badges as far as I can see and some centre caps, oh and some floormats :?
 
Really is super exclusive :) Alpinas are 3.4.

Exclusive in the way that a 2.2 litre Alpina car can be :wink:

err, where are the Barry Boys?
 
:thumbsdown:

Whats the point :roll: anyone who knows what an Alpina really is will know what this is... and anyone who doesnt wouldnt care about it being an Alpina!
 
Besides some badges, I don't see anything Alpina, no front spoiler, rear, seats, dash etc etc.
 
When I had an e34 M5 we (i.e. M5-Board) used to trawl the ads to see who was using too much artistic licence in them.

The best/worst we saw was a 'genuine M5 replica' which stated that everything was genuine BMW M5 bits except for the engine, gearbox, wheels, seats, interior, bumpers, spoilers, mirrors, dash, brakes, suspension :thumbsdown:
 
It does have the Alpina ginger lights, but those Perillis seemed expensive at £1000 :D

Ginger lights :rofl:

I thought that about the pirellis. To be honest I thought that they are more than likely replica wheels and the tyre and wheel package was circa £1k. :?
 
First thing that always strikes me about the Z4 Alpina is the very distinctive wheels it came with, which those are not. Plus all the other things that are very un-Alpina that have been mentioned and this just looks like a car with some stuck on tat. Highly undesirable.
 
Fake Alpina is a bit like sticking a pair of socks down your trousers, things look very impressive but could disappoint when the time comes to perform.
 
I've got an Alpina tax disc holder, so on that basis I must be driving a 3.0i SE Alpina - awesome :rofl:
