My B12 5.7 ekat

I think older Alpinas are starting to get some love from the BMW car club, and the mag did a feature on my B12 in the Nov edition, with some stunning photos by Andrew Coles. He mentioned that the club is looking to raise the profile of Alpina models in general, and I think I have noticed more articles on our Buchloe cars, maybe.

That's fantastic - it's a great feeling getting your car featured in a magazine. Front cover is even better. The photos are excellent.

It's an amazing car too - I'm sure like many others, I would love to own a V12 at some point. An Alpina V12 would be a dream - they are rare beasts.

Super cool! very nice share. There has been some recent B12 exposure - Nick Sahota's on youtube and Chris Harris when he went to see Yountimer collection. Very nice cars. Drew - I believe you are local?

Ta for the photos Kevin, not seen those. Can see the side by side difference with the clear indicators Mike fitted. I really need pin stripes! :D

Chatting with Andrew Coles, S6 mag is keen to do more to raise the profile of Alpina cars. My personal faves are the older Alpinas, but the mag is interested in all models, for features and the like.

I'm in Beaconsfield, south bucks, recently relegated to the 4th covid division. :(
