Default Hello from Denver

Winter is in full swing here, cars are itching to get out and run. I am not an Alpina owner but know of many and have photographed almost as many. Some were included in "BMW Ultimate Drives" and more will be included in Volume 2, out next summer. Photos still being taken,........

Yes, that is the book. Pages 187-191 show several E24 B7 and a couple E34 B10.

I will have to suscribe to a photo sharing site to link here and share this week.

After further investigation it appears we have file options here, what is the personal file capacity and limit per photo?

Jpgs are 97.7 kb, but if you need more just let me know and I can increase it. Best to use Albums, found under the Community link, than to use attachments in a post. But whichever you prefer is fine.

Just keep uploading.... If you hit a limit let me know and I can increase it. Would love to see your work!

Lovely! But yes, larger would be good so that we can admire your work better.

Gene, It’s great to hear from you, it has been a long time since we had some fun with my B10 and Anita’s BiTurbo. also that is great that you kept a signed copy for me, please send your paypal account that I could arrange for the payment. Again that is great Gene.

Also, you should get Anita to join this Alpina Club, all the Alpina guys are here plus many old friends as well. Looking forward to hear from Anita.

Last but not least, just wondering if you could post some of those great pictures that you took, I am sure members here would really appreciate that.
