I used to worry about every scratch and chip, but it can be all fixed. No matter how careful you are you’ll still mark it with use, if not you then another owner, but that’s what it’s for. Just drive and enjoy, you can’t buy the time back.

You've known and coveted this car for the last eight years or so. Now, after five days of ownership, you're looking to sell it 'cos it's too nice? How many miles have you done in it? Hmm... If you sell it you'll probably be back on here worrying if you've done the right thing. First time fathers wonder if they'll ever cope but they get through it and look back on an incomparable experience. Same with Alpina. Live a bit. Go break a few speed limits where you safely can. Enjoy every moment in it.
