Alpina B5S

this looks lovely, @slim_boy_fat ?

Now that's a nice car !

 

It does indeed look nice, but a) it's auto [I must get round to trying the new autoboxes, although I did test-drive an e60 in Inverness before buying my current car and wasn't overwhelmed - it wasn't the latest box though], and b) I prefer light interiors and c) I might just kill myself with that..........;)

 

If you get the opportunity you must try out the new auto boxes, totally different to the slush-matics we had to endure in the past.

The gear changes with the latest DCT boxes are instantaneous... but you can adjust the speed it changes if you've got the family with you

 

I like Alpinas and this one looks nice but starts to look its age somewhat.

And maybe not old enough to look cool again.

 

Looks nice, seats very worn and would need a tidy up inside. Always had a soft spot for Alpina's. There is a 2002 B10 V8S Touring going through auction next month that has done 88,000 miles and looks rather nice!

cheers

 

Does that mean you're tempted?

 

That is a very rare E39, I would be tempted.

 

Beautiful car !!! But the new owner better have deep pockets to buy and maintain such a beast.
