Description of 1986 BMW 3-Series ALPINA C2 2.7

Magnificent, fully documented since 1986 C2 2.7 Arctic Blue build by Sytner Alpina legendary mechanic Mark Akins.
Imported from UK (RHD) in the Fall of 2016.
Full Customs and EPA docs and clean NJ Title in hand.
Piles of service records indicating three owners since sold new by Peter Sytner in December of 1986.
Refinished to a very high spec in original Arctic Blue by Classic Legends in the UK.
  • Not a spec of rust.
  • Straight body
  • Interior is perfect.
  • Super clean engine compartment.
  • Starts and runs beautifully
  • Original and rare Alpina 16" staggered wheels are perfect, with locks

Since buying this car, as it needed nothing and was up to date with timing belt and water pump, etc, I've just changed the oil (more for fun than out of need) and installed a new top of the line battery.
If you are reading this and are considering bidding, you know what at Sytner built Alpina is. And you probably appreciate the lifetime worth of documentation including stamped service book from new.
So have a look at the pictures (I have many many more and will post when I figure out how) and get a good feel for the condition of this amazing and rare car.

A stainless Powerflow performance exhaust was added in 2009 by the previous owner to replace the original, which had at that point, after 23 years, had lived a good life. Other extensive records show oil changes, brakes, timing (cam) belts, water pumps, etc, etc all replaced at expected intervals and typically by the selling dealer.
