ALPINA B12 5.7 Coupe in Sweden ?????

Hi

Johann-Gustav .....

Have any of you heard of a B12 5.7 in Sweden ??
Just got a "report" from the flying B7 on its way to Stockholm that he had a Red B12 5.7 Coupe on his tail in the area og Karlskoga. Anyone know this car.
As far as I know it did not turn out to be a race. Could have been fun.

Erik

Johan: Do you know if it possible for a privateperson to get access to Bilregistret at home? Or is it only companies who have that possibility?

NO it was definitly NOT an F16, they are to slow to follow, it could have been a
MiG31 Foxhound on a spying trip to Sweden.

I checked their web it seems like you can only search for reg nr or persnr.
But they offer special searches such as all Alpinas, All F355 ion Stockholm, etc.
I don't have time to call them but take a look at http://www.ore.vv.se/uppdrag/

Actually you could search on what colour also!

I have a friend who went with his Z3 (fast car -not) behind a B12 in the middle of Sweden, but he didn't remember what the sign said more. But I suspect this was a B12 5,7 (base 750i). And it wasn't red.
