Thanks! I did want a black Aero with ambers but alas they never come up, I've had a Scarab Anni before but a 2.0lpt which Abbott racing tuned, was still impressive, do like the Azev A's they are easier to get hold of over the Compomotive's
Glad you still got yours, don't think theres much out there for the money that does as many things right as these and keep going no matter what.
I believe a the Aero seats where designed by chiropractor hence the comfort and stability

I think 17's are the max to what they recommend, trouble with 16's is I don't want too much sidewall flex on the tyre and the 16's seem lost on such a big car, I think Abbott racing used to put 17's on there spec'd up demo cars possibly to accommodate the bigger brakes. The best mod I believe is a set of SAS anti roll bars so will look into those when money permits.

Oh no not at all just subtle mods, I will fit the adjustable Koni shocks and Abbott racing springs and put some Compomotive MO6's on in 17inch form so can fit an AP racing or Wilwood brake kit, Alard intercooler and strengthened LSD gearbox with suitable upgraded clutch and possible hybrid the TD04 for more response and headroom, so nothing that cant be reversed but will make it a much more potent and capable car

Hello and thanks!
Yeah its a shame there are soo few left and more of a shame that so few petrol heads have had the chance to drive and experience them, makes me smile everytime. Have an Abbott racing delivery pipe and very rare BSR illuminated boost gauge on its way as well as a front splitter I'm going to try and fit to the front bumper

Thanks for the positive comments guys, this car is very difficult to value, the only car that came close to this which is currently for sale now is a B6 touring in red which is a J import a car which up at 25,000 euros! The B6 is just a 328i in an Alpina dress too might I add! I have put the car up in mild comparison to the B6, a car is worth what someone is wiling to pay for it, I can always come down in price but you would pretty peeved if advertised it for give away money and we took the haggling up, it doesn't happen. I am a very reasonable guy, so please no more comparisons of more run of the mill stuff.

Just a quick comment to the select few on the Alpina register to which I am unable to register on for whatever reason, they comment on the last MOT having 10 advises, they have been addressed, the next comment on me being a trader because I have some cars on my Photobucket from when I lived at home with parents is absolute rubbish! The photos on there date back to when I was 19 so 14 years and theres about 12 cars on there so not a very good trader! Cars are my hobby and pleasure I love them and have lost huge amounts of money on them but that's cars for you and wouldn't change it, plus I have recently just spent £3k on the Alpina and the last service invoice totalled £1500! I'm selling the Alpina to go towards a business venture that is all I may even sell my RS4 which I have owned for over 4 years also, the longest I have owned a car for. I do not take lightly to selling rare cars like this as it will be the last time I see it or afford it for that matter.
Apologies for the rant not aimed at anyone on here.

Thanks, yes very much a solid investment that is practical and can be enjoyed and not too shouty to attract too much unwanted attention. Love the fact that its in purely an Alpina colour rather than the others which are run of the mill colours and I think 1 may be Individual but again you can get the Individual option across the BMW range.

Alpina made 5 of these in RHD form for the UK market and this is the only 1 in indvidual Alpina Blue with HellGrau leather upholstery and really is in fantastic condition inside and out.

A recent service has been completed at BMW and isn't due for approx a year and also benefits from 12 months MOT. Specification of this B3 comes high as standard with the following:- S243A Airbag for front passenger S255A Sports leather steering wheel S302A Alarm system S314A Door mirror, driver lock, heated S320A Deleted model lettering S341A Bumpers completely in body colour S354A Windscreen, green tinted upper strip S386A Roof railing S401A Lift-up-and-slide-back sunroof, electric S411A Window lifts, electric, front and rear S428A Warning triangle and first aid kit S431A Interior mirror with auto-dip S441A Smokers package S465A Through-loading system S473A Armrest front S481A Sports seat S494A Seat heating driver/passenger S497A Centre armrest, rear S498A Headrests mechanically adjustable, rear S502A Headlight cleaning system S510A Headlight vertical aim control S520A Fog lights S534A Automatic air conditioning S540A Cruise control S542A Check control S554A On board computer V with remote control S687A Radio preparation S773A Fine wood trim S785A White direction indicator lights S786A Measures 17" wheels L812A National version Great Britain S853A Language version, English S863A Dealer list Europe S877A Omission of non-combined operation S880A On-board literature, English S918A Alpina B3, intern S920A Alpina without registration document S940A Special equipment BMW individual S962A Engine characteristic curves Individual vehicle data:- Sign "BMW indivdual" 0490 Colour Paintwork "ALPINA blau-metalic II" 0940 special request Alpina B3 model designation Alpina instruments, oil temperature, oil pressure, differential temperature, gear selection 3,46 locking differential Delivered Alpina wheels M door mirror in body paint Thanks for looking. 20171101_161422 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171101_161451 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171101_161400 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171101_161511 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171115_160238 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171115_155959 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171115_155951 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171115_160033 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171115_160033 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171115_160018 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171115_160044 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr

Hello all! Thought I'd put my Saab 9000 Aero manual on here as love it! Spent a long time trying to find 1 never mind a nice 1! So found and bought this gem, she was rebuilt by Abbott Racing back in 2007 or 50k miles ago and that included engine and gearbox and has a really nice history with thousands spent. She really is a great drive and good fun, always loved these and have massive respect for them as they are very underrated and very rarely seen on UK roads these days. So spec so far is Abbott Racing stainless 3inch downpipe without cat into full Abbott Racing 2.5inch stainless system Abbott racing ECU (275bhp) Abbott racing delivery pipe Abbott Racing lower arm bushes Abbott racing piggy back rear anti roll bar Abbott racing front strut brace ITG Air filter Maptun boost pipes Maptun coolant pipes Black front grille Wired up US side markers I have many more plans for this car and will update as I go along. 20171101_162752 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171101_122643 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171101_122716 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171101_122735 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr

I think everyone needs to drive/own 1 of these at some point, they just have that something special and relaxing about them when behind the wheel, I found I was just letting everyone out at junctions with a touch of Jean Michel Jarre playing in the background on the period factory upgrade sound system! Just Yes

Hello all and welcome to the for sale ad for my very rare on the roads now Audi 90 20v Quattro. The main reason for sale is she does not get the use anymore and has been since sat up for 2 years! There is a reason for that lack of use. I bought the car from an older retired gentleman, an ex engineer who loved and cared for the care for many years, in fact he had 2 of these, unfortunately he let the car sit up unused for approx. 4 years, he had spent much time and money on her including replacing the bolt and fixing for stainless steel and logged everything in a notebook which he gave me, and I mean everything! Including replacing small things like bulbs which bulb when and how much! The downside is he attempted to spray the N/S of the car and doesn't look great, I intended to sort this in fact give the car a full respray to get her where she deserves to be, upon purchasing the Audi I replaced the battery, wiper motor, wiper switch and wiper relay and also a cambelt and waterpump change, these are all genuine parts and not cheap, I put her through an MOT and passed with 1 advise on number plates which I replaced with ones again I purchased from my local Audi main dealer, I also replaced the centre pipe for a non resonated stainless part from Germany to release that beautiful 5 cylinder note no other car has on the road, I've always run her on V-power and put a decent fuel system cleaner through her to get rid of as much old fuel as possible and with every tank the Audi got better and faster! However unfortunately the dash binnacle stopped clocking miles up so I stopped driving her, I phoned around to find a decent company that repairs these old dashes, I found a company called cluster repairs UK and they absolutely ballsed the job up big time!! When I got the dash back after 2 months and no less than 30 phone calls it was not only not repaired but made worse and it came back with 138k miles on it the mileage was 146k miles! It now has a fault with the temperature gauge, temperature warning light and bulb warning light constantly illuminate, after a "polite" phone call there answer was its old and refunded me the repair fee and not the postage, I even sent the 2 donor dashes at there request so postage wasn't all that cheap either, so after feeling very let down and disheartened by the experience I parked her up for 2 years due to other projects taking priority I'm ashamed to say. I have very recently got her up and running again replacing the battery again another tank of super unleaded and I have been using her on private land for long periods of time she gets up to temperature and stays there, I used a laser light temperature device to check this as the gauge isn't working, I love driving the Audi and the noise is addictive however I can not see myself ever getting the time to complete and enjoy her so I'm giving someone else the opportunity to take advantage of a rare Audi 90 twin cam Quattro. I did put her through an MOT on Friday and she failed on the following:- Front brake imbalance (due to lack of use discs and pads would solve this and a clean up of the sliders) Front top mounts have play (can still get sport shocks and spring kits for these approx. £250 a set) Rear brake imbalance on the O/S (same as front will need the O/S/R caliper either replacing or cleaning up a replacement is approx. £80 from Euro's) The history on the Audi is fantastic! I had to take pictures of it as its vast and even includes old Audi repair instructions! Has 4 keys in total as 1 key does the locks the other does the ignition, again these are Genuine Audi keys 1 of which has the factory light and also has 2 period Clifford alarm fobs which also operates the central locking and they both work as does all the central locking. Factory diff lock works. Electric front windows with armotronic rears as is the sunroof so nice and simple and all works. Full service including K&N panel filter and cambelt and waterpump in the last 2 years or 1,000 miles. Very rare Audi Sport leather steering wheel. All in all a great proper classic Audi which is a rare site on British roads with huge potential. 20171020_133410 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171020_133323 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171020_133329 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171020_133336 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 201710220171020_133410 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 0_133341 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171020_133427 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171020_133449 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171022_115246 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171022_115251 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr 20171022_115300 by luke pirozzolo, on Flickr
