Description

Granite Silver Metallic, Black Leather, Alpina Classic Wheels by Ronal, Alpina Front Splitter, Alpina High Comp Mahle Pistons, Alpina Intake Valves, Alpina Modified Cylinder Heads, Alpina spec Bosch Motronic ECU, Alpina Exhaust, Bilstein Shocks, Sunroof, Climate Control, Electric Seats, BMW Bavaria Sound System, Alpina Steering Wheel, Electric Windows, Alpina Pin Stripe Deko kit Alpina’s from the 90’s represent a statement in taste and no more so than the ever beautiful 8 series treated to the marque’s impeccable styling and engineering upgrades. Finished in a pristine coat of Granite Silver the depth is outstanding and resembles more of a liquid form. Complimented by the traditional front splitter and deko pinstripes this example commands a unique presence at the kerb and on the move. 90’s-vibe Pop up headlights are a fitting addition to this elegant cruiser, a styling cue normally associated with BMW’s Italian counterparts. The ergonomics of the drivers cockpit are perfectly designed, cocooning and supplying the driver directly with all instrumentation within an arms reach – and given the pillarless construction and optional sunroof this unique model feels very special indeed. The 8 series continues to succeed as a design triumph and and is luxuriously laid out; oozing 90’s style and sophistication as it did sat in the showroom when new. First sold by Sytner of Nottingham in October of 1991, this fabulous Coupe would return to the supplying dealer for it’s running in service at 1,421 miles just two months later. Returning to the main dealer on a further 11 occasions up until 2007, with the last service at 68,700 miles, the car was then sympathetically stored until recently where a light recommissioning has since taken place. Over £11k has been spent on suspension, braking and fuel systems to ensure the car is ready to be used, admired and enjoyed by a new owner. With the original stamped service book confirming the car’s early history, and a significant recent spend, this iconic Alpina is available to the market for the first time in 20 years.
