Default I visited Alpina HQ today

Fellow Alpina enthusiasts, I was in Germany earlier this week and realized that on my way from Bregenz Austria to Munich Germany there is a town that you should all recognize - namely Buchloe.

Yes indeed I made the trip to Buchloe and pay a visit to the Alpina headquarters - fantastic facility!

After buying a few Alpina items they took me on a quick personal tour of the facility, and I saw Bernard Bovensiepen being interviewed by a film crew.

I will try to add some photos later.

A visit to Buchloe for an Alpina enthusiast is like Mecca, Jerusalem or the Vatican for other religions.

Also, I dropped by the BMW M-division center in Munich. Funny that it is located on Daimler street :-)
