Two ways of looking at that really 1. AMG are lagging horrifically behind BMW M, VAG et-al in high performance diesel technology and are hoping by keeping their brand "pure" they can bolster their following 2. AMG genuinely aren't interested in making a high-end diesel and would rather focus entire...

My 2 cents (or 8 grand) view on the Lavalina leather is that it makes the car really look & feel like an Alpina rather than just a well sorted BMW. Now that they are all assembled by BMW, they are becoming less and less unique, the Alpina specific leather gives it that extra something. As for the tw...

B10 V8 in Geneva
Spotted it on the Route de Meyrin near Geneva airport, B10 V8 in blue. Only saw the car briefly, it was stopped at traffic lights and I was on the tram going the other way.

leaves me with little choice sadly :( Surely not so sad if you can get a Swiss Alpina to replace it with? :idea: I can but will have to save up first, everything is twice as expensive over there because of the weakness of the Pound. I'll be back in an Alpina but won't be immediate, things like a de...

Sadly had to vote on this, mine is going to a new owner on Saturday. Only had to sell due to a move to Switzerland where it is a pain to import a car that doesn't have a certificate of conformity. ALPINA could import it for me but want a rather large sum of money (well into 4 figures) just to provid...

I must be in the minority here but I love the idea of a V8 in the Z4! Never been keen on bodykits, but I'm sure Hartge would do the engine conversion and leave it looking standard, or maybe just a subtle twin exhaust to give a hint that there's something else going on (not that thing they have comin...

I love unusual colours as long as they're not too brash, at least you know the owner of that car specced it the way he wanted it and not the way the next owner on 2nd hand market might like it. I'm sure we've reached a point now with cars in greyscale with black interior that just floods the market,...
