Sytners Nottingham wont give out details about any Alpina unless you are the owner of the car and you write to them! They couldnt even tell me how long it would take for them to let me know if I faxed over a letter from the owner asking for the details!

Is there anywhere else I can find the details from?

They gave out details to me of that 'dubious' Alpina from the south coast I was looking at... both Nottingham and Leicester were more than willing to give out info. They even rang me back when they had more stuff to tell me...

Odd that they won't give you any info... maybe a new change of policy.

Hmm, I was going to try the Solihull Sytners to see what was involved in the Alpina Conversion on my car.

Nah unfortunately not. Mine is just a 325 Sport but according to the owners manual and receipts it had the Alpina Conversion.
I just wanted to know what that involved.
The car looks the same as a normal sport apart from a little Alpina sticker on the boot lid.

:D The guy I bought it off said it was alot faster than his other 325 so hopefully it does.
What gives it the extra power?
