63 + buyers premium of 12.5% plus VAT (15% incl VAT) on the first £300,000 of the hammer and 10% plus VAT (12% incl VAT) thereafter Lot 655 2008 BMW Alpina D3 (E90) Manual Registration: FJ57 CVG Chassis No.: WAPD320007XL10607 Estimate: £20,000 - £25,000 Essentially, Alpina took the already superb E90 platform from BMW and added some special Alpina touches resulting in more focused, diesel sports saloon with a unique appearance and exclusivity for owners. Styling features included larger Alpina multi-spoke alloy wheels, a front air-dam and rear spoiler, revised cloth seat inserts, Alpina dials, floor mats and a plaque with the car’s build number reminding passengers they are onboard something rather special. Performance upgrades included tuned suspension, re-mapped ECU, larger Turbo and intercooler and improved fuel injection resulting in just under 200bhp and just over 300lb/ft of torque, rather impressive from a 2.0-litre oil burner. Offered here is a beautiful 2008 Alpina D3 with just 3,555 miles from new and only one previous keeper. It was supplied new to the UK in right-hand drive and first registered in February 2008 specified in Graphite Metallic with manual transmission. The condition of this Alpina can only be described as remarkable and our vendor informs us that, to the very best of his knowledge (he purchased the car in 2020) all panels are original with factory paintwork. The interior also shows no indication of wear with nicely preserved Alpina trim and original Alpina mats. The D3 has only been used in fine weather conditions, dry stored correctly and, with such low mileage, must be one of the best remaining examples in existence. Although lightly used over the years, the car is accompanied by a comprehensive service record with its original book pack including service book stamped up-to-date by BMW workshops and independent specialists. MOT Certificates from every relevant year corroborate the mileage from new and the current MOT is valid until 28th September 2023. In summary, this is an excellent opportunity to take ownership of a real emerging classic from a point in time when performance diesel automobiles were beginning to dominate endurance racing including Le Mans. A delightful, collector-quality Alpina with unquestionable provenance, concours potential and guaranteed to attract the right attention at any car show. A rare, emerging modern-classic Alpina D3 with manual transmission and low ownership, in lovely, original condition with less than 4,000 miles from new. More Details Lot 655 Bid On Lot 655
