First Alpina Ordered
First Alpina Ordered
Hi everyone,
Been following the forum for a while but this is my first post.
I have a few weeks ago ordered my first Alpina which is a Mineral Grey D3s Touring.
Delivery is due for June and probably wishful thinking but hoping it will come forward some.

Re: First Alpina Ordered
Very nice, have you read the Autocar review, wondering if you considered sticking with the 19” Dynamics? You could add a pan roof then.

Re: First Alpina Ordered
Yeah I read the Autocar review, bit disappointed they dropped it from I think 5 stars on the B3 to 4 stars on the D3 but guess I will have to make my own decisions.CaesarBob wrote: ↑Thu Feb 04, 2021 12:08 pmVery nice, have you read the Autocar review, wondering if you considered sticking with the 19” Dynamics?

Personally never been a fan of the dynamics and I guess i will sacrifice a small amount of ride quality with the 20". Also I have never ordered a sunroof on any of my previous cars.

Re: First Alpina Ordered
Funny, i have wanted an Alpina for maybe 30 years but always found a reason not to buy one but finally bit the bullet so yes, really excited and looking forward to road trips in it.

Re: First Alpina Ordered
I've spec'ed my D3S with the Dynamics ahead of the Autocar review. I've always opted for the small wheels when ordering cars, many because I'm cheap. To be honest though, the B3 Touring I drove with Classics was fine from a ride perspective.
When is your's due for delivery?

Re: First Alpina Ordered
Welcome pf64, and that sounds like a nice spec' too.
You can't beat an Alpina Touring for class, pace and space, but then I am biased.....
Fingers crossed your delivery is sooner than expected and be sure to upload some pics after she arrives and log your car on the register.
Always interested to know where in the country members are for when meets are allowed again. Obviously nothing specific but are you 'up north' or 'down south' etc?
Cheers,
Jules
