:lol: as a proud new owner I'm probably a little bit evangelical in trying to convince people that alpinas are a bit special 8) but i'd like to see a presence in the official car club forum, what with the forthcoming relaunch of the alpina club register at the end of the month... have a look here: h...

For the last two years I have used Norwich Union Direct I'll give them a phone, I didn't bother before because it says on their site that they don't insure them!

In the 3 series (E46) BMW fit Cat 1 as std Thanks for that, my previous 1999 E46 323ci was with Tesco too, and they never said nowt - and it's exactly the same system!! (DWA MY 99) :roll: I'm going to phone Thatcham tomorrow to get them to clarify things and post back tomorrow, thanks for your inpu...

thanks for the link Neil but I'm still confused The B10 Alpina is factory fitted with a Cat One System. I think the codes are as follows. DWA MY99 and TC2-1010/1098 The last one is the Thatcham ref no as stated in http://www.thatcham.org/security/pdfs/compliance.pdf if its TC2-1010/1098 that would m...

Got a renewal quote from Tesco and they insist on a Cat 1 alarm/immobiliser with a "certificate of installation" I was led to believe that a Cat 1 Thatcham was an alarm and immobiliser, and my 2000 B10 3.3 has both, as factory fitment (got a spec sheet from BMW listing "0302 Rem Con Anti-Theft" :?: ...

I see some cars have Alpina badges instead of the BMW roundels.

Are these all fake eBay specials or are they available as genuine optional extras from Sytner?

any information?

Air filters, oil filters, fuel filters, spark plugs etc. Do I use 328i ones or M3 3.0 ones?

Can anyone give an approximated value on how much I should be expecting to pay for a 1996-registered Alpina B3 3.0 Switchtronic Convertible from an non-franchised dealer?

Needs tidying up cosmetically but appears to be mechanically sound, 64k miles, HPI check is okay.

Thanks in advance
