E36 B3.0 1994 convertible in alpina blue
E36 B3.0 1994 convertible in alpina blue
regrettable sale of my 1994 B3 3.0 in the best colour combination.
auto/tiptronic
one of only six in rhd and potentially the only one left on the road (@CaesarBob most helpful on this subject)
comes with hardtop and stand.
am renovating other, older alpinas and need the funds.
number 45. nearly every mot and loads of history. low miles.
photos and a video walkaround:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5v29s6mcho7u ... B4vea?dl=0
good bits:
the rare alpina-specific blue.
it's low mileage, around 88k. i've had it 3 years and done 2000 miles a year. garaged through winter.
the bodywork is in good condition. no rust or marks i can see anywhere.
the wheels are good but not perfect. 4 vredestein new tyres.
new bosch battery
engine bay is good, dashboard all works. new bluetooth/spotify radio and immobilizer.
mechanically sound. very reliable. recent oil and filter. everything works.
the only anomaly is that the oil light comes on at idle occasionally, but has been repeatedly checked and no fault found. it goes as soon as revs go up.
drove it to northern italy and back last year with no issues or problems.
very rare car.
bad bits:
the hood lining is a little loose and some %^&%^$ put a knife in the rear window of the hood so there may be a case for fitting a new hood, rather than just the window. am looking at a temporary fix this week.
interior is the lovely pale grey colour but is starting to show its age. the bolster had gone on the driver side.
the standard e36 issue of glue failing on the door cards has hit, so both interior door cards (passenger side not good) have come away from the doors. they need re-glueing back. i'm trying to track down spares at the moment.
recently abs light has come on which am having looked at.
the rubber/plastic inserts have faded a little on the bumpers and could do with replacing.
there's some scratches on one corner of the front spoiler.
a credit to its former owner, it just needs these bits of cosmetic work to bring it back.
probably worth saying that this is a 26 year old car so that needs to be taken into consideration, but this is an excellent version of an original and cared for B3.
car is located nr herne bay in kent.
£10,950

Re: E36 B3.0 1994 convertible in alpina blue
I bided for this car on the auction and was out bid. Car spent most of its time a few miles from where i live and was meaning to knock the door and ask if they want to sell it. I think he only got a couple of grand in part ex and the auction and dealers made a killing on it.

Re: E36 B3.0 1994 convertible in alpina blue
looks lovely, a rare survivor from not many UK e36s sold!
Re: E36 B3.0 1994 convertible in alpina blue
There's a good chance this is the only one of the six 3.0 Cabrios that survive. Hopefully someone will take over custody and continue the good work.
Good luck with the sale Matthew.
