Have you found a replacement for the B5

Alpina XD3 Biturbo #467 Deep Sea Blue

#003 was mine for the last five years (70k miles) it has a full history file with it, all main dealer, at least it had when I dropped it off. This car had a 5 year service pack on it from new and full BMW warranty, I let that lapse a few years ago when the renewal price went up by 150% :roll: The on...

Yes - that is my old car - M33 OKM

Nice to know it is still around, it dropped off the radar a few years ago.

Yes an old ad - lifted from County Classics when they brokered the sale in 2012.

I thought that it may have reverted to FJ53VPW but that is not known also. At various times it was also CU 15 (which is now a Range Rover) and VDN 25 also not known. I sometimes wish I had kept it but if I tot up the subsequent miles it would be over 260k by now ... more than enough B3S miles for an...

rare but not that rare ..... B3S - #059 Mora Metallic was mine but seems to have disappeared since I sold it. I think that one and the cab mentioned were almost paired with my saloon but it never happened. I suspect it has champagne piped with purple interior.

I am liking it - vastly better than the current XD3 but it would need to be an XB4 not XD4 for me to be tempted.

but I'm sure I've seen you on that stretch of A1 before?

Yes that would be true - it is a fairly regular commute to / from Junction 59 for me. Usually a little more 'leisurely' but I was running late ...

This morning ....

M42 Northbound near to M1 - B3S Biturbo in Black - so surprised to see an E90/93 that I did not notice how many doors

then later

A1M Northbound nearing Leeds - B10 V8 in Blue imperious with B10 AV* plate.

Beautiful - it makes mine (#003) look very boring (and dirty) ....

That is my 'old' car .... hence the plate (T8 O KM). No idea about the reg number in the listing. There are some errors in the listing, for instance - it has at least 3 owners, first one being on the Isle of Man where it was originally registered (B340 MAN iirc) although it is a Sytner supplied car....

M6 Westbound? Which way is that then?

Coventry towards Birmingham ... I always think of the M6 as east / west until north of Birmingham

M6 Westbound cruising the central lane around Coventry at 3.45 Wednesday afternoon.
Maybe TerryW in his new ride - did wave - but have privacy glass

B10 M**
Just behind you as you passed the main car park and turned into 'town'.
