luvly spec mate

got pics?

[M4YTY]

il get some up in a moment
cheers by the way

Mallard, any luck with the last one I posted (B750037)? I'm guessing if it does pull up anything it won't reveal the true car (an Alpina B10 Bi-Turbo).

Justin

[Mallard]

Sorry matey , i missed that one

B750037 doesnt work though

[Borg561]

Had a feeling it wouldn't. The VIN plate has an Alpina logo and all, and the VIN is the normal 17 characters, but it almost looks like a VIN that was created when it was imported to Canada. Carfax shows one record (not sure what it is) and doesn't show any make/model info. Not my car (really wish it was), I was just curious if it would ring anything up.

Justin

[M4YTY]

a few pics of my motor. needs a wash though!

Skip my previous post, I found where the previous owner had you decode the vin#
Let me know what forum I should ask the next question, if I'm not in the right place

Is this 1995 318ti a Sport model, plus or minus some options?
Thanks for any help.

You've actually got a '96, and it is a Sport model. All '95 Sports were Club Sport models, and had M3 side mirrors and a Millpoint interior. Another way to tell it's not a '95 is the production date. Usually any car made after October is for the next model year, so 10-95 would be a '96, 10-96 would be a '97, etc. The Sport suspension, seats, and wheels, as well as the bodykit give it away as a sport.
