Bit of a badge special IIRC. Just a styling excercise on them.

Think you'll find engines modded, gearbox is modded, interior's a one off, etc lol. Alpina dont do just a badge conversion, they start with a bare shell. It's not quite an XR3i

Alex,

Im selling my ML 270 CDi and this guy rang asking if I would take it in PX. I know nothing about these cars and the traders I know are no help as its a specialist car.

The guy said he wants £5k, so if he likes mine and wants to do a deal I want to make sure I dont shoot myself in the foot as its not something I would keep. I would sell just to get my money back or make a couple of £'s.

Any advice would be gladly accepted.
Thanks

I did quite a bit of research on the E46 Alpina but not on the 36 im afraid, tbh,

the Alpina always seem to be cheaper than a M, the dealers dont know how to value these either.

Id be seriously intrested at that price.
