Thank you, I am in the North so it was worth the drive south. It took them a week but I was not pushing, rebuilding my own caps is very satisfying

Hi, I just took the wheels with tyres, I did dismantle the caps and removed the valves as I have a die tap and socket to replace with new valves. They normally mask the valves.

Great photo!

I've just had my wheels refurbished by Lepsons in Wolverhampton. A big thankyou to them and to Gee on the forum for the recommendation. They have just done an amazing job. I had the wheels done 3 years ago locally to me and they did an awful job. Amo and the team at Lepsons were fantastic and provid...

Small world, I am glad you had a good time. We are still here until Friday. I have some Alpina reading with me . Your car looked nice

Spotted in the car park not far from my everyday Audi.

Thank you mate, I will check on mine when it gets back from having the tracking and camber done on my friends Hunter machine.

Thank you it was great to get out behind the wheel again. Unfortunately, I've picked up a chest infection since, but it was worth it.

NW Club BMW Stand at Cars & Crafts Show, Haigh Woodland Park yesterday. 2 other Alpinas on display so I took the opportunity to take a photo of all three together. It was my 1st drive since my open-heart surgery 7 weeks ago to replace my Aortic valve. I missed the Alpina meet at Sytner earlier this ...

Very nice, enjoy.

Hi, I checked the height of the springs against some used ones I have, and they are the same as my originals before and after powder coating. I know the car will sit a few mm's high due to the due new shocks and top mounts. It would be nice to compare notes with someone that has replaced their suspe...

Yes all parts ordered from my local BMW dealer with the Alpina vin, I have a trade account with them. All BMW OEM top mounts, spring pads & plates, drop links, pinch bolts & shocker protective tubes. Alpina Sachs shockers and bump stops.

Hi everyone. From my last post I have been doing some more work on the old B3 with Matt at MPE Automotive in Redish Stockport (great work). 2 months ago I had the front suspension replaced with all new BMW parts and the correct Sachs shocks, I only re-used the original Alpina front springs and had t...

Hi it looks like car number 170 was also finished with the same leather covered dash and door trims. The only difference I can see is the black blanking panel on the passenger side door handle. https://thealpinaregister.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=50&t=15268. The roof shark fin on mine is original, a...

Hi, the car was built late Dec 2000 and registered early Feb 2001, so the water bottle is a early one. The dash trim is very special with the door handle & gear panel, finished in very thin silver grey nappa leather. This was option code 8888 on build sheet from Alpina. It looks like every option wa...
