This is up on Sytner's site now. One of the original press cars apparently and pretty well spec'd if the advert is to be believed.

For some reason it has jumped up to £18K

Happens quite often unfortunately. Must've had too much interest.

Similar to when I enquired on the B10 and the phone was ringing off the hook and the car would most likely be sold in a few days!

Not a bad car if service history is up to date using the correct oil filters and it’s not on its original Supercharger

Indeed. How many days is "a few"? About 60 & counting

Images are up now, looks nice but needs to some cosmetic work: front splitter and wheel badges at least.

Not a very good clean up, the interior mats are still dirty and the headlights need work, is that condensation or do they just need restoring?

Agree. I know I sound like a broken record, but the level of preparation from these main dealers amazes me. How can they retail it with a cracked splitter, not to mention the fact it's not even been cleaned - look at the wheels.

Looks like the front bumper is scraped on the off side too.

I would like to think these issues would be resolved before a sale. But maybe it shows that they see this older Alpina’s as an attractive retail option and the residuals are holding up well?
As the only supercharged models these e6x models, I think will have a firm following going forward as something unique and standout from the turbo variants that followed. Just my opinion of course.

TBH I'm sure they will - I just wish they'd invest in the car before retailing it rather than hedging their bets in case they have to auction it off.
