E39 b10 v8
Hi,
I'm considering going to look at this b10 v8 : http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewit ... 1095946024
Does anybody on here know of this car or anything about it?
It's the first time I've considered an alpina and could use any help on offer.

Hi Troymann, I first spotted this one back in May/June 2012 at this same dealer. It was priced at £6995 originally then reduced to £6500. The previous reg. was L4 PNA and the mileage at that time was 98k. Not sure why it has stuck for so long but sometimes that happens with these cars and does not necessarily mean there is something wrong with the car. It seems like a good price now if all is in order as they may feel that they have had it for long enough and just want it moved on. Looks to me worth a viewing and check out it is a good enough car.
I ended up buying a B10 V8S last December after my searching and I can assure you they are great to drive and the build quality, being an e39 to start with then improved by Alpina is excellent.
Go and test drive it.

I used a guy in Southampton who is well known for repairing the Pixels.troymann wrote:
Also could anyone recommend a repair service for the digital display on the dash?
As I was able to go to his place he repaired mine in less than an hour while I waited, cost £100.
I believe he charges £120 inc postage if you can send him the instrument binnacle.
Have not got his details to hand at the moment, as I am in Germany at an Alpina meeting
If no one has given you his details, will do so when I return to the UK
Welcome to B10 ownership, it's worth the effort.
I used the same chap as B10BRW - Rudi in Southampton. His website was www.bmwpixelfix.co.uk but doesn't seem to be active so you can try emailing on rudi@bmwpixelfix.co.uk.
I do have a mobile from 12 months ago which I can PM you and he charged me £100 for a while you wait service or slightly more with postage - excellent fix. There do seem to be a few choices for this now but I was very pleased with Rudi as many have been and as he was local it was even better.

Fixed mine myself for less than £20 with a new ribbon from ebay. Bit fiddly but very satisfying when you see it all working.troymann wrote:could anyone recommend a repair service for the digital display on the dash?

Hi and congrats on the car.
There are regular deals on Castrol edge 0-30 so please don't be ripped off for £80. I think most member stick the oil spec although some oil burners have changed over to a more viscous grade.
Sure someone will come along with where to buy for a good deal.
