History
I bought this car as a 1 owner car in April 2002. Over the next 10 years it underwent a complete nut and bolt restoration and transformation to Alpina A4 spec. All parts used were period BMW or Alpina parts. The car has featured in the following magazines:
BMW-Car UK (Small photo on cover and 7 page article) October 2012
Classic and Performance Car Africa (Main Cover picture and 6 page article) April 2013
Car Magazine - South Africa
The car is due to ship from South Africa and will arrive at my new home in Canberra in July 2015.
