1991 BMW 8 Series 850 Alpina I review from North America
"Worth all the thousands I put into her!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch has been replaced a few times. Mainly from a heavy foot though.
Still running like the monster that it is.
Air conditioning has been replaced. Loves to blow hot air.
General comments?
Best thing about it is people sometimes have no idea what it is. My favorite of all.
