SUMMARY

Very rare (one of 93), BMW Individual, 250bhp Alpina B3 Coupé in need of some cosmetic TLC and offered without Reserve.

DESCRIPTION

  • The B3 was Alpina's take on BMW's E36, an M3 for those that are just a touch more discerning
  • It succeeded the B6 2.8/2 and was based on the E36 325i with the displacement taken out to 3-litres
  • It now offered 250bhp, 320lbs/ft, 0-60 in 6.1 seconds and 164mph
  • This particular car was specified with BMW's 'Individual Package' and is finished in Montreal Blue with a light grey leather interior and sits on a set of multi-spoke Alpina alloys
  • It's one of 93 3-litre B3s imported by Frank Sytner and has been enjoyed by four owners from new
  • Purchased by our vendor ten years ago in need of a paint/lacquer refresh but that never happened
  • It does run and drive, however it needs to be considered as a 'rolling restoration'
  • Your close inspection at Stonleigh is welcomed in order to appreciate the potential on offer
