Â£100k? Thats madness,

I like this quote from his ad "please no time wasters / dreamers and silly offers" surely the only dreamer here is the seller?

I think chap has mistakenly put cat d on the Porsche advert rather than the alpina or it's a cat d but no mention on the alpina advert

From reading the link you put up hap I can't see any mention of cat D on the Alpina. It was repaired after the insurance changed their mind on the salvage value.

The insurance company might not have categorised the car, it might be HPI clear
A lot of motor vehicles are damaged but not necessarily recorded against any registers
Somebody will have to get the registration and then preform a HPI check to confirm if it is recorded

I would love to own that car
But not at Â£100,000
Luckily for me , I already have a B12 6.0
Number 45 , A 2000 model
I value the car at a maximum figure of 20k, considering it has been repaired, and that's if it's been repaired correctly

I tried to buy the Alpina B12 5.0 - B12MPH
But you get guys like "AG" on the register who tell the owner that the car is worth Â£25k
The car needed work on it, the rear EDC suspension struts were leaking, had no mot, and I now hear the exhaust wasn't brilliant
The car was worth 10 to 12k in its present stage
But a chap who restores Astin Martins in the Newcastle region bought it
I think he might have paid 15 to 25k for it
And is currently re commissioning the car

I have spoke to the chap selling the B12 6.0
He wants offers over Â£100k
He's given me the registration number
So I will update on the status of the car on the HPI register
He seems to think it's HPI clear
Apparently he's bought the car with no damage !!!

I can confirm that this car is
A Category D

So looks like he bought off the collector once he fixed it

Gee.Singh · Post by **Gee.Singh** » Tue Oct 31, 2017 5:28 pm

After speaking to the seller this morning, Saj
I believe he is the original collector who bought the car
He's got several other cars for sale
And already sold a few in his collection
He wants to emigrate , hence the sale or sales
Plus it's showing only 2 previous owners on the B12
Good Luck to him if he achieves the price he's looking for
It is the only estorial blue Alpina B12 6.0 RHD in the world
