F31 D3 buying advice

Agreed that the spec isn't the best, but the black wheels are easily remedied if you're fine with the white car.

Happy hunting, anyway!

What’s the big omissions on the spec? Seems ok to me.

Thanks for keeping an eye out for me HB, I had seen this one but not too keen on white with black wheels!

Playing Devils Advocate… in your first post you mentioned you were new to Alpina. The pool of cars you’re looking at is less than 100 I believe. Strike off a number that haven’t been well cared for, others with spec omissions you may desire that cannot be retrofitted (everyone wants a pan roof), perhaps mileage, say sub 100k miles (that some people seem to insist on), and the amount of cars should they even come up for sale is crazy small. Black wheels can be sorted!!!

White car with black wheels. The actual spec list looks good from the previous post.

I agree that there isn’t a huge pool of cars to pick from and there are likely to be compromises, but I would rather wait as I’m in no hurry and spend my money on a car in a colour I like with an interior I like. I know I can get the wheels refurbished, but I’m not a fan of black or white cars, which may make it a long wait!!

Haha fair play, will stay tuned into your hunt!

[AdrianP]

Haha, I hope I won’t keep you waiting for too long

Just seen this advertised.

Unfortunately I’m not in the Country for a couple of weeks, so can’t take a look and black isn’t my ideal
colour, but everything else looks really nice.

Is that missing the HK? Doesn’t mention it, can’t see it…

[AdrianP]

I think you’re right….no HK mentioned and you can’t see in the pics.
