Re: B10 3.5 decal writing correct location? Help..

Thanks Bob, Good idea. I have asked the chap that built my car back in the day: Mark Adkin and he believes they were at the front. I’ll just double check with Alpina as I don’t understand why there are the two options out there.

B10 3.5 decal writing correct location? Help..

Hello, I’ve had decals made by Simon on the forum which look really great. Just confused with where the ALPINA writing should be placed on the side of the car. From googling it many E34 B10 3.5 have it on the front doors but then others have it in front of the front wheels.. I’ve attached examples o...

Re: E34 B10 3.5 returning from hibernation

Thanks for the additional info and comments. Should look better in a few weeks as I’m going to carry out some detailing and likely get an expert out to polish her up. Number 7834. Manual. Grey cloth interior which I guess is marmite but I like it as you just never get cloth these days and it’s so co...

Re: E34 B10 3.5 returning from hibernation

Great thanks for the pointers. Pretty sure the old pipe, (certainly the middle section), has had its day. I’m wondering if the manifold would be standard 535i or whether the conversion would changed that too but I’m sure that’s in fine fettle. Just curious. I’ll be getting her out for an Mot in the ...

E34 B10 3.5 returning from hibernation

Pulled her out the storage unit to let some other bits out and thought best to share a snap. She had the sills professionally replaced 18 months ago and some of the little annoying marks sorted like the mirror area and a scab on one of the back doors near the window trim. Shame the original exhaust ...

Afternoon, E24man - Indeed the car was for sale year previously at £14995. I struggled to decide what to put it up for this year. The specialist E34 market is difficult to be sure of but if anything on the rise. I'm not looking to give the car away as it's happy in my collection and I can find room...

Hi, I'm new here and so far have struggled to find the info I'm after but hopefully you can help please. I've got a B10 3.5 E34 and would like to refresh the suspension as shes sloppy. I've been advised to go for some B6 Bilestien shocks and some standard springs. How do I find the correct spec? Ran...
