DVLA records shows it as a BMW not a Alpina BMW?

The plot thickens.... this comes up as a grey Alpina to me but a white BMW to you!!

Didn't the LCI have LED rear lights (all red)?

Also did the D3 in white come with a black roof? Maybe this is a wrap?

It was the reg that threw me as I noticed a lot of D3MTs seem to be FJ or similar?

My description of LCI sorry. But the first 200'odd were even more basic than the rest.
This one has the rear parking sensors where the first 200'ish never.
I can't remember now what all the changes where, as it was over 6 years ago since I had my 2007 D3 MT.
IIRC it was the start of the BT cars that was the LCI

No probs, I get you now!

Those tail pipes look Alpina D3 style rather than a 3 series made to look like an Alpina, the plates not being FJ as said is also an anomaly.
