Description
UK RHD B5 Saloon / No 324 / Black Sapphire with Ecru Merino Leather ~ Very well presented B5 with just 42k miles and 4 owners from new.
~
Fresh from a day with our detailer this E60 looks absolutely fantastic with both silver and blue elements of the finish really popping through. Specified in undercover spec from factory, without either contrasting deko set or front splitter graphic, this one almost slips under the radar. There are some small stone chips, and a tiny mark to the OSR shadowline trim, but nothing to detract from what is a very clean example as you can see in the images. Unmarked 20 inch wheels are wrapped in Michelin rubber all round showing plenty of life. All wheel
keys present.

The interior space is generously specified with sunroof, heated seats and head up display as well as that beautiful stitching to the door inserts and steering wheel. Further badging to door entry strips, seat backs and floor mats align with the model designation. Aside from a small crease to the driver's seat base the cabin presents in showroom condition.
~
Mechanically it is factory specification with around 500bhp and 516 lb/ ft. As illustrated in the Alpina service booklet enclosed in the embossed bookpack, the car received its pre-delivery check at the Alpina factory on 2nd November 2006 prior to dispatch to the sole Alpina concessionaire for the UK - the Sytner BMW Group.
~
Interestingly, the car was first registered with the DVLA in December 2007 and on 21st January 2008 was given a 'running-in check' at 1, 189 miles by Sytner Nottingham; likely to have been a demonstrator or used by Sytner management. It was later registered after four months on 22nd April 2008 to the second owner who kept the car until November 2020. The BMW Alpina Sytner Nottingham used vehicle order confirms the car was sold with 34, 688 miles later that month and registered to the third owner on 2nd December 2020.

Purchased last year, it is time to trim the collection with funds needed for an alternative project.
