Is it just me or are there a lot more Alpinas in Aussie than in NZ?

Its an interesting mix of recaro seats, tech1, tech2 and what looks like a zender kits, but the only hints to Alpina are bits you can stick on pretty easily and a dash cluster. Its a baur obviously but do you have a build plaque or any documentation to verify its a C2 ?

Assuming it is, its the only one Ive ever seen and must be incredibly rare. A C2 was costly enough in those days, but a Baur convertion (which was available on any 2 door) must have made it massively expensive for its time.

most likely an "Alpina Australia" car, shonky guy in Sydney by the name of Imre that adds a few Alpina parts (or replica parts) and puts his own plaque on them, some have most Alpina bits, some have hardly any. there are probably only about 5 genuine Alpinas in Australia

Cool car digger..

Love the plastic headlamp covers, I remember my Mum had those fitted factory to her E30 when she got it in the 80’s, can’t be many around with those.

Hello,

Welcome to BS. I have a TC Baur as well with the same front kit, is it an alpina kit?, my kit style follows around the whole car.
