Nice work.

I drove an Alpina green B7S back in 2004/5 for a magazine job. It was at the annual Alpina Gemeinschaft meeting, in Berlin iirc. One of the meeting points was in a huge car park with a long wide road either side that we used for trracking shots. Bloody hell it was fast. Very sad that BMW don't make cars like that anymore. Faster, better on fuel but just not the same.

Nice video, shame about all the wrong Alpina parts, another example of no product knowledge.

I can't enjoy watching a so called specialist who knows nothing about the product. Take out the stanceknob production and what's left?

If that was my company, I would have overlooked every aspect of the production, half of that content wouldn't make it in the final cut. He should be embarrassed.

What's a BMW Alpinas? :)

Because the zone has become a place where nobody can create a single thread without some kind of bitch-hater comment being posted - and it seems mods are included.

@Demlot - it's not what you know, it's how much of a w4nker you sound like - you win top prize. Congrats!

Don't try and be eloquent - you sound like a 'tard.

Stick to spanners and memorisation of Alpina catalogues.

See here Ratch, look at his comment from a 3rd party point of view!

YOU'RE the one throwing personal abuse here.
Dick! :roll:

And look back through the thread, it's you that started to throw it first too.
