It's been up for sale at that exact price for many many months now. I guess that the seller knows it's such a rare car (only around 5 in the UK IIRC?) so has used that as an excuse to put it up for that amount. I'd have to be a crack addict and him offering to throw in a lifetime supply of crack to...

I had a look and didn't find any under 18500 but it was a half hearted look as it's an ugly passat looking thing. I got distracted by a lovely old B12 for 5k

Looking good James but you need to ditch those wheels ASAP - fugly :lol: Some 19" Classics would improve it no end :wink: I am not sure that 19" Alpinas would look rihtand I susect the offset ould be wrong. The only option would be 21s but will be seriously pricey. I must admit, I love Alpina wheel...

LOL no but good try!

My next Alp will be a B12 (hopefully when we return from Cyprus circa Feb 2012)

Does it help that I wanted a V8 750i but had to go with the oil burner for the sake of my pocket? ;) Nope PMSL!! Nice one Charles. I could really fan the flames and go for D7 EGO :wink: LIKE the D7 EGO. Sounds like you have bought it from the Caribean ! LOL I think that's be a great plate! :lol: I'...

And just to keep Charles in the loop:

Charles's kids thought long and hard about how to react to their credit crunching pocket money reduction and decided to leave him a note!

Awright mate?

After years of stealing people's mail, Noddy was able to trade in his red van..

Jaguars determination to keep their new prototype under wraps blew the stationery budget.

Off topic next months BMW Car issue: It looks slightly different as I cannot actually tell from the photo if it is the same car that I spotted at ‘BMW Classic’ during the ALPINA trip this year. The car for next months issue is a BMW 2002 GT4 Frua and if it is the same car then I could not take ...
