You'll see this production registration mounted on the roof board (near the sunroof controls).

You can check out http://www.thealpinaregister.com/stats for all the registered Alpinas running on the roads.

Hahahahaha......I wished. Here's the story.....

After viewing the thread yesterday am, I went to look for this caryard in SEAPARK...an area I am completely unfamiliar with. Drove around and found some 4wd's etc and spotted the car. Went in, and one fella there said to me sudah jual!!! I did not even utter a word. There was a tow truck there right next to the car. In the same day, I also called the E34 Alpina engine guy on Mudah to enquire about the engine. The fella another rude punk!!! Told me " Dont waste my time, I know what all you forum fellas are like". I never even said I was on the forum!!! I said "wei brader....u wanna do business pls be a little more patient and dont be presumptious". He said he dont care!!! I give up la....the world is a strange place.....or maybe all these Alpina fellas need a retune or a kick up the wazzoooo!

gosh..thats news.

Thats exactly what happened to me. Very rude bugger the car sales man. He saw me with my camera the other day over the wall then suddenly all this influx of people coming and enquiring about the car. Must be suspicious thats why towing its away somewhere safe to rot away .

Bros, i finished my 2.5 years tenure in Bahrain n offered a position in Abu Dhabi, leaving on the 20/10. maybe time to upgrade. going thru some bimmers for sales in UAE n came across this,

http://dubai.dubizzle.com/classified/autos4x4s/bmw/5-series/2010/10/5/alpina-b10-s8v-ready-to-go/

its a B10 V8S. white interior. the driver seat looks sunken. still, very interesting.... one thing though, interior trims r all silver but the steering seems funny, its wood.

OR this

Steering is an ori Alpina steering, so its wood. it came out of Germany like that.

That steering is identical to the one in my 530i with the exception of the Alpina logo. Is that an original Alpina?

Bro just a easy job, if u don't like the wooden colour just send to respray bck to silver.

 

[Realred78]

That wooden panel can be taken out and replaced or you can laminate it or spray it.

Original Alpina steering would normally have green stitching too

For example, this is a later Alpina steering, looks like normal BMW steering but changed a bit

Passed by yesterday and saw that the car is still in the used car compound.
