Fair play pal. Thats good to know whether it be a zoners car or not. Just shows some of the lengths people will go to try and rip someone off, Knowing you travelled all that way just goes to show you what sort of pricks they are

unfortubately this is not unusual when trying to buy e30's really very few decent ones left now. They seem to be in inverse proportion to the number of liars in the world. More good convertibles than anything else though.

As mentioned before, a link to the car in question would be handy.....
Ebay/Pistonheads/Gumtree or wherever you originally "found" what you thought was a good enough car to travel from Scotland to Brum to buy?

Come down to Oxford and I'll sell you my C2. It will end up costing you a boom , but itis all part of the chareter of Alpina ownership :cry:

On a more serious note , there is nothing worse than traveling for hours to find out the mint car is so bad it only destination is the weigh bridge. I am just starting to look for a newer Alpina and I am having to interigate the owners over the phone to make sure I'm not waisting a big journey and a heap of cash on public transport.
