I would like to replace it, but can't seem to find the right part. I've also noticed some B10s don't have one... From my in...

Import complete! It was a bit confusing to do, but with the help of a broker at the port of entry there weren't any problems with US Customs. It didn't go completely as planned though. Once the car arrived and I went to pick it up, there was some significant damage to the front wind deflector. Furth...

New Alpina Owner from U.S. of A.

Hello all! I just purchased my first Alpina. A 1990 B10 BiTurbo, #87. I would guess I'm in the lower end of the age demographic of this site at 25 years old. What I lack in experience, I make up with enthusiasm and curiosity. This forum has already helped a ton and I imagine will continue to be a so...

Alright! I seem to be the youngest Alpina Owner to vote! I just bought my first, a 1990 BiTurbo, the car is only one year younger than I am. Needs some work, but overall a sound vehicle (summer driver only of course). This is my first post, and I'm glad to be part of such a great community!
