B3 E46 spotted on M4 eastbound Slough

Post by Jules Sunleu » Mon Nov 13, 2023 11:19 am

Got a nice wave from a B3 E46 this morning whilst in my B5 on the way to Birds for the annual service and MOT.

I can count on one hand the amount of times I've passed another Alpina outside of queuing for a car show!

I was just about to post that I saw a lovely B5 wagon on the M4 near Slough this morning. Freindly driver gave me and my kids a wave as I was taking them back to uni after a weekend at home.

Lovely car - It makes you realise just how special these cars and our small community are......

Good luck at Birds Jules! They sorted some suspension issues for me and were great.

Hi Rav, definitely a community!

I've used Birds since I got the car 4 years ago, as did the previous owner for the previous 7. Had my usual good chat with Kevin when dropping off. He and his team are great, I'm very picky over who I'd leave my car with.

Shame about the weather this morning, definitely one of my more sedate drives! Hope your drop off was all good.

Cheers
