And I'd like to thank you for putting it on the E60 M5 forum, otherwise I would have missed this extremely interesting and informative write-up. Most entertaining!

Is it just me or does the B7 have exactly the same rear leg room as the M5?
It certainly looks that way from the photos. I was imagining a cavernous rear compartment for the 7.

Thanks for posting.

Any chance Alpina is getting near the end of the stockpile of its multispoke alloys it must have ordered 20 years ago??

I had just ask you guys about your choice between the alpina b7 and the 760il. Gustav told me b7. I trust his judgement I was already sold but this made it even more promising to show my wife she's now sold. Someone ask about the leg room. I was recently on edmund .com comparsion. The alpina in the rear sitting area was only 6inches shorter in the rear than the 760 il I can't remember exactly but will get back shortly with the answer.
