That's a great bit of PR for Buchloe, especially the embeded league table which shows Alpina in some pretty hallowed company. It's such a pity the author has shown bias towards Ferrari in the title and the opening paragraphs.

Great stuff! I had observed it already from the figures published by Alpina, in comparison with other similar brands. I'm relieved that an external appraiser has made this job.
My firm is selling CO2 alike services and I'm the leader of this service offering. As such, I have often been gently mocked by colleagues, for my taste for Alpina (saying that my carbon footprint could be virtually seen on the floor ) . Now I will have an excellent line of defense !

Only if you buy a new Alpina.
