Post Tue Aug 16, 2005 1:06 am

hi, guys, been a strange week , while at my local bmw stealers, the technician i was speaking to , was looking around my 325i, well i thought it was, he has been after buying it since i bought it as he is an e30 enthusiast like all of us, upon further investigation the car was found to have a c2 2.7 engine , so the guy put the car on the ramps, it has all c2 suspension, roll bars, etc , the car was researched over the week, and it was a bmw directors car, the car has quite high spec, they also checked the chassis number with sytners, and the car was confirmed to have the full , mechanical alpina upgrade, i thought it was a 325i , but did not notice when i bought it , it is in fact a 2.7 , this must be rare. the technician wants the car an offered 4k on the spot !! , i paid only Ãƒ”šÃ‚£850 for this car, i knew this was a great car but blimey , never expected this, i did think it was quick for an auto, and a little juicy when a bit of right foot is used. but honestly im very, very happy with the car.

Post Tue Aug 16, 2005 1:57 pm

this could just have the alpina sport pack?

Post Tue Aug 16, 2005 2:19 pm

If it's got the engine and everything else its a proper C2 2.7 conversion.

All alpina's are individual and alot were ordered without the badging and in some cases the plaque.

You are one lucky lucky person!
