they did do E36 alpinas. sounds like a bargain if it's solid. they'll only increase in value if looked after if the E30 alpinas are anything to go by

pics and specs? :D

this could be one of those "you'll kick yourself later of you don't buy it" moments. like the V12 e-type my dad didn't buy for £1500, just before the values went absolutely beserk! :? whoops!
oh and my MK2 RS2000 x-pack with 75k on the clock... bought for £1350, later was up for sale at £3.5k when i wrote it off, now would be worth nearer £12-15k :cry: :cry:

even an early b2.5 would be worth a punt, I've heard figures of 200+ brake banded about defo worth a look at the very least
