Lovely car. Are the decals correct? I can't recall seeing them on the bootlid like that before.

I am selling my X5 in the next month or two so would ideally like a second more classic BMW/Alpina, such as:

6 series (pre 1990)
8 series
Alpina

Hopefully on a budget of 10K-15K

They are correct under the number plate
The odd thing is the front facelift spoiler on pre facelift model

That's ridiculous money especially considering the front bumper won't fit for toffee, the facelift wings are wider and a different profile, bet that bumper sticks out half an inch each side on a pre-facelift car.

From the pictures it looks like it does. I have learnt a few things from this thread!

so what is everyones opinion on what it is realistically worth?

Don't think its that much over 13 to 15 is my margin
I just wonder if it's had a front end hence incorrect spoiler but the interior is lovely depends if it's a summer car or a daily if the later I'd be looking a little more discret

I have seen this car and can confirm that it appears to be a very straight car although I didn't notice the bumper was wrong. Just a few of the usual stonechips but overall a great looking car from long term ownership. Sounded as good as it looked too; but I guess they all do.
