Thanks - yes I am up to 11 now (one is a potential parts car - a 535i). It is getting a bit crazy and I am thinking of culling the fleet and weening out the Mercedes. They are great cars, very well engineered, but there is no following or support network even remotely comparable to that of BMW and Alpina. When something is wrong, the typical Benz forum person will say, "Take it to a mechanic/dealer". Being a hands on kind of guy, that doesn't work for me.

Should I post all the cars or just the Alpinas?

34 images uploaded - pending approval. Will go in and edit the comments/descriptions once they are approved. I called the file 'all my children'.

Cheers,

Looks great! I was wondering if the rear spoiler was optional or not? Actually I do not remember seeing any pictures of BTs without.
