Look, do your homework, and you will find that I'm right!
We'll how do you know it's the original engine then and how do you know the bits haven't been swapped with a 325i
What 'bits'? :/

I know both previous owners " the fella who broke the Alpina and sold the parts on, (a bmw specialist with a exellent reputation)and the fella who bought them" they are both straight honest people who still do business today. No dodgy scamming. Sorry chaps its boring i know but its as simple as that.

Perhaps detail would help just like when checking art is authentic it's all about the provenance

The detail was checked yesterday, the vehicle was sold and as i know it both party's are happy. I'm sure you would agree its for the new owner to post up details if he so wishes.
