Regarding my Carrera GT (not Alpina I know!) lucky to have had it for 17 years and 60,000 miles now.
Great to see it being used and enjoyed!

Re: New D3S Touring owner

That looks superb - love the colour combo.

And what a 4 car garage too - it doesn't get much better. 8)

Re: B5 on Collecting Cars

Congratulations Matt, that's a wonderful car! They look so good in Alpina Green.

As others have said, a bit of paint correction and it will look even better. You will love it as a daily driver....

Re: G21 B3 Pirelli ALP Tyres

Slightly related to this chat, it looks like the replacement to the PS4S has now been released. Appears they have rebranded slightly to Pilot Sport S 5, so now a PSS5:

Sizes are quite limited so far though.

Re: What did you do in your ALPINA today?

Gave it a first wash in my ownership. Some of you may recognise the plate from the cars time with Autocar magazine last year. Sytner changed the alloy wheel and deco set colour for me before I picked it up at the end of Jan. Fantastic Matt - it looks superb! As others have said, the silver wheels a...

Re: It’s no Alpina but I like it.

That is very nice - I've looked at these a few times in the past, they are really desirable. Such an understated looker for a V8 Wagon. Enjoy!

Re: New owner B3 3.3 n499

On my last trip to Germany, I noticed that Buchloe was on my route. I had to stop for a photoshoot; it was with the wrong car and at the wrong time ( already closed). Next time, hopefully, I will be there with the B3 :D That's a very serious M3! Great stable mate for the B3. Look forward to seeing ...

Re: New owner B3 3.3 n499

This is fantastic - it's like an episode of M539 Restorations! The refurbished parts look superb.

What a great car to lavish the attention on too - lovely colour, manual and with a special interior. Fair play. I look forward to seeing further updates.

BTW That white B8 is just 8)

Re: Help - my renewal quote doubled !!

I've been having a similar experience. My B5 came up for renewal a couple of months back and the current insurer said they could no longer quote for it. The best quote I could get was with Aviva and that was nearly double. The B4 has now just come up, and again the insurer (this time Churchill) have...
