I’m with Dave on this.

He’s very good at what he does and has always worked on my cars for me.

He did my gearbox service when I got my f30 and has good all the necessary tools etc.

Gave the D3 a bath, first one since July.

Going to the German Car Festival at Silverstone on Sunday too

That’d be me. And yes, I live locally.

Can’t beat a weekend run to M&S and Costa!

Went on a weekend trip to the Nurburgring with some friends. Loads of Alpina spotting on the trip. Not a 100% trouble free journey as one of the suspension arms failed going through the Foxhole leaving me out of shape and on the back of a recovery truck. Fortunately the local garage was able to get ...

Welcome.

You need to send a SEPA/international payment as they’re based in Germany. Other countries don’t operate a sort code and account number combination. Just Swiftbic and IBAN.

Sold it! Came a little out of the blue, but happy that the car has gone to a good home and will continue to be cherished and enjoyed. Onwards! Funnily enough I was sat in Nando’s with a friend and he said “you’ll never believe one of my customers (he’s a mechanic) has just bought a Melbourne red f3...

Very nice spots, that is a G31 B5 though

In that case, I stand corrected.

Went to the Collecting Cars meet at Donnington Park on Sunday, saw 2 other alpinas, a santorini blue B3S and the below G21 B3 which was lovely.

I saw one near Clifton village on the a453.

If it’s the same one I think it might have a short or possibly dateless plate on.

To wade in here I think that the pedal feel in the alpina is a lot different to other cars. You can get a device which plugs into the pedal and speeds up the pedal response if you wanted to bring it more to the feel of a 330d etc. I have one for sale, will put the link below. https://global.cksperfo...

Evening. The process was quite easy when I did it at the start of the year. I contacted the email provided by Gary and they issued an invoice which was paid, it was around £60 but maybe a little more now. Once I had the CoC I sent this plus proof of ownership and the logbook to the Birmingham CAZ pe...

Not specifically today but went to the ‘ring a couple of weekends back.

Was a great weekend and the car was awesome on the drive there and back as well as round the track.

Would recommend to anyone that has given it a thought.

I would recommend the Wheel Woolies brushes, I use them on my D3. Generally just use the middle sized one as it fits best with my 19’s. I will be sealing my wheels up with a ceramic coat too to make things a little easier when time allows. Always finish up with some tyre black, either auto finesse s...

Spotted a lovely blue f30 with silver decals on the a453 this morning headed towards Nottingham. Looked great!
