I had the V8, absolutely loved it to bits
I had an EsCos and the Alpina at the same time and the Alpina was my choice to drive everyday. I liked everything about it EVEN the fuel consumption

As soon as I get a new motherboard in my other pc, I'll post up some pics. I took near on 100 of them (sad anorak or what ).
Servicing and parts aren't that cheap depending on where you go but theres not much to go wrong with them. I'd have my old one back tomorrow if it came up for sale AND this time I'd keep it for good.

The sound system in it was out of this world and sounded amazing, as usually in a 5 series there cr4p unless you spend a few quid on them Also watch out for badge collectors, I had 2 sets nicked
