Is anyone else going to the Alpina meeting in the Alsace from the 9th until the 11th of October.
This is being organised by Passion-Alpina in France.
At the moment there are 3 Alpina's going from the UK, but so far none of our German friends have shown an interest.
The weekend to include wine tasting, and seeing that rarest of beasts, a French registered Alpina.

How did this go?
Couldn't join as my B10 was tangling with french admin to get it's plates. No got them yet, but found a way to keep it on the road for the looong time that will take.
Look forward to the next one!

Does anyone know the Owner of the black b10 3.5/1 on this outing? It looks like a french one & I'm trying to get through the 'red tape' to register mine.
Hopefully I can find some advice.
Thanks - nice pictures too!
