[Blitz]

It says Anthracite interior on that Sytner letter, the blue velour is pretty shocking

[Rodderz]

Nice, how much do we think?

[Rodderz]

If I'm honest, I quite fancy that, is anybody else going to be bidding?

[E30BeemerLad]

Have you got an account Rodderz? Pretty sure you need one to bid on Copart stuff, they need some brief from you like utility bills etc, plus £40 membership

[Rodderz]

Didn't know that, thanks!:)

I really shouldn't buy another car though...

[bss325i]

It looks like its worth saving, that's for sure!

[Ninja_Penguin]

some bargins come up on there...sure i was shown an e34 m5 that was a cat B, the drivers side roof was about 1/3 the height as it had rolled several times

[csl]

That looks like an intresting car. Nice find.

[VeinAST]

Only up the road from me! Knowledge, money and knowhow comes to a project like this, and I have none!

[Simon13]

how the bloody hell does something like that end up in there?! i mean its hardly damaged is it?! although new front wings for them are a comedy price

[gooner1]

Bloody good question Si.

Lovely looking item, I even like the Blue velour interior.

[cecotto479]

It's being sold on behalf of the customer who has "given up" on the restoration.

It's not being sold as an insurance write off though it was was written off in '89.

Copart will take private commission auction sales like any other company.

[Rodderz]

Given up! It must have some horrors hiding somewhere then?

And, written off in 89? That must have been a lot of moneys worth back then!

[bss325i]

And, written off in 89? That must have been a lot of moneys worth back then!

Possibly stolen and recovered hence the blue interior instead of anthracite?

[lyricalnut02]

looks nice, shouldnt it have a rear spoiler?

[bss325i]

Yes, a black rubber Alpina spoiler.

[jonb]

Looks like a nice car. But the fact that its been wrote off previously effects the price of it when done.

If i was after another alpina i wouldn't want to go near one written off. And its an auto.

Ive been to that auction a fair few times as its not that far from me, but im not interested in that thing.

[Rodderz]

I won't be interested in it, it will beinteresting to see what it goes for! 3k?

[Andyboy]

3 grand for what is quite likely a shagged old 6 Series with a lot of the correct Alpina parts (exhaust, cam, suspension) missing.

[bss325i]

Looks like a better car than the Henna sack of shit B9 up Pete's passage!

Do we know this?

Not for sure, but it is pretty accurate way of describing most old Alpinas !

[B7]

Looks like it could be a way into rare B9 ownership that. I like it.

[Andyboy]

3 grand for what is quite likely a shagged old 6 Series with a lot of the correct Alpina parts (exhaust, cam, suspension) missing and which in on the register with a permanently marked logbook.

Do we know this?

Edited for accuracy.

The red B9 Coupe to which Barry alludes looks great in photos but is absolutely dreadful in reality.

[Rodderz]

Currently at 3k!

[tomson]

Sold for £5,100 to a Polish bidder !

Looked a good starting point for an E24 to me.
