havent really done much since buying it, took the alpina badge off the back as it was gettin to much attention on day to day driving by d**kheads on the road.

Also bought a personalised number plate so ordered some german number plates, with uk font to make them as legal as possible.

future plans are gettin wheels refurbed then probably get front and back bumper resprayed again just to get it mint.

Very nice, not usually keen on 5 doors, but that looks spot on, is it a genuine alpina?

Looks great John, I think red/clear rear lights would suit better though maybe, but that's just me being picky
