    i believe you can find total bmw in some bookstores. I could be wrong, there are a few UK BMW mags that are sold here in the US.

    Nice Alpina. Good job.

    I'm buying an issue if that is sold in the states. I know we have performance BMW which is what I usually get from the UK.

    thanks alot mate.. not sure where u could get the mag.. it was last months edition..

    have a look on... http://www.total-bmw-mag.co.uk/

    well she is my 2nd car, so is a bit costly runnin 2 motors.. also ive lost a garage i used to keep her in.. with the weather over here i dont like leavin her outside..

    On the C1 2.5 only very few where made in 1985.. Alpina put skirts and a rear valance on.. but the C1 2.3 was the first Alpina in the E30 series which was a typical 80's motor.. with stripes and a massive front spolier.. only 60 of these cars were made between 84'- 85'..

    yeh the alpina spoiler is simply pop riveted onto the valance.. perfect fit too.. and looks awesome..

    you might beable to find one on uk ebay..

    or from a company in germany that does genuine Alpina bits..
