Guys
Do you know anyone who can give me 21 days insurance on an Alpina? No one seems to want to touch it?
Its registered as a Make - Alpina, Model - Alpina and this seems to spin most insurance companies out.
Had some fun and games with this recently. Its been on stands for a few months now.... its watched me take the tow bar from the Alpina.
The last owner told me it had been fully renewed when he bought it...
Oil filter (Which I had to use a vice to get off.....) and aux belt from 2009...
Quite possibly so. They hold an event there all weekend, much like yourselves but with 2 days on track. It forms part of the Westfield Sprint Series too so there might be some more discount there too.
I wasn't trying to be funny, I'd just like to do a full day this time :). £90 for a day vs...
When is the early bird pricing announced?
Also can there be a bit more of a discount for taking a full day on track this time?
Not owing to be awkward but I paid more for half a day at Blyton with you guys than I did for the full day with the Westie lot.
So.... do I sell the bodies? Buy a supercharger and some shorter rods.
It would make a 300ish bhp 8000rpm unit. Not sure it would ruin it though.
There is a 260bhp Duratec with Ecu for sale on motorsport parts. £7k is a fair chunk of dolla though.
Its staying how it is. The standard wheels on this MY17 model were matt grey anyway. I like the design of the black ones, just on a black car its a bit black. There was a Corris grey one available but that is the same colour as my dad's one so thats a no. After that there was a red one which...
I am starting to think I might be a bit that way you know...
Will certainly stick out in the farming community.
Rightly or wrongly it is in the most ‘resaleable’ colour combo.
Innit
The Alpina wasn't doing it for me. So this has arrived. Still have the Alpina if anyone wants it?
Bought it unseen off a spec sheet. Its blacker than I expected.... Black with the 'stealth' (lol) pack, is err black.
100 miles in and its doing 32.1mpg, not bad. 3.0 Diesel V6 with 306bhp...
To be fair these were going pop from the off. I posted on there about my friends going with in 2k miles and 4 weeks of delivery. All the ford fan boys said it was isolated and would be a 'bug' with the early cars.
The problem was there from the onset, using a blinkered 'ooooooh Ford RS' view...
