KiwiAlpina 1 Report post Posted August 27, 2008 Hi all, been quite sometime since i've been on the forums, so hi to you all again!. Anyway just like to drop a bit of a sad line on my behalf , i have sold my beloved ALPINA B10 which has been on TradeMe of recent months, time has not been on my side so the old girl has been sitting around doing nothing so thought time was here to find her a great new home and have some loving attention brought upon her by a new owner. So if your in Auckland and see a Black E34 ALPINA B10 out and about, give the new owner a warm wave and toot and if you get to talk to him (his name is Don) make him feel welcome into the realm of the BMW. As for me....... well i've already got withdrawl symptoms and looking on sites for a E39 B10 to bring in, maybe not now but i will again one day soon drive an ALPINA. Cheers for now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kento 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2008 You will no doubt be having severe withdrawl symptoms(Musing thru old copies of "Total BMW" etc). If you are ever in Christchurch Tony get in contact & I'll take you for a drive in the B3 Cheers Kento(South Island Alpina Fan) PS An E39 B10 should fix your symptoms I would imagine!

Hey there Kent, long time no talk mate, not been down your way since the Mini Challenge Series in early 2007, we've got a GT3 now but not doing anything at all, Jeff very busy with business across the Tasman and myself flat out the same here in Auckland. Don't worry mate about the withdrawl symptoms!, they good and strong at moment as been surfing a few sites looking for the alusive E39 B10 i now dream about.....one day, one day. How is garage of ALPINA's? must be due for the B11 to hit the roads soon. I'll be down for that for sure.

They really are just magic to drive them as they were built for. Cheers for now Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Havn't done anything to it yet but still have plans to get it on the road. Keep in touch & good luck on the B10 front Cheers Kent Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
