Pity it isn't an E21!

CHF 18,000 is just about £13,800 in GBP

Again found in Switzerland- there seem to be a lot of early Alpinas in Switzerland!

(ps you can tell it is quiet at work at present- with Manx Grand Prix the roads are closed for racing and I am locked in)

Sounds like it's time to be outside and sniff some fumes then mate. That B6 is cheap, but considering mileage and a few weak photos there's quite a chance the car isn't exactly in mint condition. Have experienced that a few times before where cars that looked good at a glance appeared to be complete wreckers. Take that into account before booking your tickets to Switzerland. Most Alpina steals FS in Switzerland have been on Autoscout for ages already and there must be a reason for that. Further, in most countries you have to take into account that import tax and VAT may apply to Swiss imports.

It's a bit like that with e30 M3's in Pistonheads & eBay. There are a few that look OK but are actually complete sheds.
