It was a Sytner only model.

From what i read ages ago its got some Alpina Cams, maybe some head work and a re calibrated ECU. 212bhp quoted.

If you considering buying one then try to stretch to a B3 3.0 or 3.2.

Yes i have seen 1 that looks real smart,want a BM that i can use as a everyday car if you know what i mean.
I dont really like takening out the 6 and the cab unless the weather is okay plus i have limited miles on my policy.
I have never had a e36 before and i like the look of the coupes but i want something alittle different.
This 1 is forsale at £4400 on a K,i dont know if this over priced for 1 as i think you could pick up a standard 325i for £2500 but i like alpina.

My uncle had one of these from new on a K reg.

As said it had some engine work done to it, also the suspension was beefed up if i remember rightly.

They came with a dyno chart to prove their power so see if the current owner has it.

I was only a lad at the time but it seemed pretty swift. Only around two hundred made so they are relatively rare.
