I must be lucky as I have a b3s vert and also the e36 touring 318, the b3s gives me 31 on motorway journeys, but the touring is also giving me a good return, mostly motorway use but will double check on the mpg , but definitely over the 400 a tank.
well pleased with both.

I do wonder what the ALPINA logo might look like in green...?
Took green and silver letters down to the car show and let the others see what they thought, most picked blue but some went for the silver for a more subtle touch, great kit as usual Simon, thanks

atlantis blue b3s vert build 034

Please feel free to move this to another part of the forum, but found that my old car is advertised at £12995 at cars of Chichester, the ad did not state that the car was a write off, so I called them and first asked about the car, the guy told me that they have taken it off the market as they have...
