They came off my 2008 E92 B3 Biturbo. I hit a pothole which punctured the tyres and buckled the alloys. I had these replaced under ...

Just before I bought my E92 B3 BiTurbo, I took a test drive with a Sytner demonstrator D3 Biturbo saloon. That must have been sometime in 2016?

Could it be the Sytner Notts ex-demonstrator? It drove obviously amazing but the B3 was petrol :wink:

Kind regards,

Bert

Welcome... I am in Brewood. (When not on the Isle of Wight working :shock: )

I think I saw your car in my village, or is there another one?

The same as for the e92 B3 Biturbo: currently £245 per annum, so a few tanks less a year than an m3.

Cheers,

Bert
Ps: interesting vehicle.....

Beat me to it hap!, yeah, it's a different dealer now, looks like they took it off the repo agents. Not really, old boy: The first dealer bought it through an auction of the finance company ( the “repo agent” was merely the guy that collected it from Sytners Nottingham) and it now is at a secon...

Well, who can blame the man to keep reducing the price: ultimately, it’s a 10 year old premium car of a brand that is hardly known, he runs a business and cars that sit for months and months aren’t going to help anyone’s cash flow. Someone asked me the other day, how many e92 RHD m3 were actua...

Walnut blasting for Direct injection cars.

Hi all, A german based E92 B3 BiTurbo owner mentioned on the Genuine Alpina Facebook thread that he walnut blasted his intake head to clear all the carbon. http://theALPINAregister.com/forums/userpix/47386_carbon_pic_1.jpg I was under the impression that it was something only cars driven by grandfat...

I am following the 1960-ties and 1970-ties BMW market since the 1980-ties from Belgium, Germany and Switzerland. I live in the UK since 1999.

The e9x series cars are becoming "old cars" now, without them yet having achieved classic status. Next year will see the new 3/4 series being introduced I understood.

I'd suspect that there is still a bump downwards to come, even more so at the end(s) of the bell curve.

Kind regards,

Welcome to the forum! Having driven 2 e46 M3 and also the CSL variant, I was incredibly disappointed with the e9x version of the 3 series. The m3 in particular is an awesome car on paper, with various options such as horsepower, steering input and damping customisable. (Or at least the one I took up...

Hi Ali, Thanks for your pm, and I have responded as well. As with regards to the turbos, there was no indication indeed that anything is amiss. I am aware of the Ex- John W B3BiTurbo (from memory 074) who had its turbos replaced at a cost of £3500 at something like 60 000 miles though BMW. I indeed...

E92 B3 BiTurbo Coupe 053, FJ08FFS, 136K mls, 1st reg 07/2008

Sadly, a business venture went incredibly pear shaped and the above Alpina B3 BiTurbo 053 is being repossessed as a consequence. It will either be having the registration "B12OEX" or its original registration, "FJ08FFS". I was working as a consultant for a UAE- based organisation and not being paid ...

I fully agree with putting now the summers back on, but sadly the state of the roads whre i live at the moment is so dreadful, that i’d rather bust an 18’. Bmw m3 alloy than my alpina 19’s....

Sad state of affairs, really.......but hey ho.

Cheers,
