Dogleg gearboxes are crap.
The overdrive box was much, much better.

Very nice. What year is she? Manual or Auto?
Henna red looks soooooo good.
Bet it turns more heads than a new M6.

Just seen this myself - fabulous! Never seen an E12 based car that's so original. Check out the steering wheel - is it a BMW item? |
Sure is, its the M1 and E12 M535i type sport steering wheel. very desireable item.

I met Gary at Rockingham, he had a superb e28 B10, looked like it had just rolled out of Sytners workshop! Shame he decided to sell the e23, if he had done work on this as well as the e28, it'd be one of the best around!
I remember that e3, pure magic.

I believe "spokey" has had great fun in his so far, but needs new brake servos....
About 1.5 hrs to go on the Alpina E23 B10, by the way....

I think it belongs to Gary Beevers.
He's had some nice cars, a ruby red 3.0Si on a P?
Sadly though, £1500 is about the value of it.
I bet it goes well though!

I know, I spoke to him at Rockingham.
Trouble is someone will buy it for that very reason.
If he does break it, I'll have to buy it piece meal, as that's the only way I'll be able to afford it at the mo!

I wasn't being serious as I think any old Alpina is worth saving, but
according to the ad on Ebay the owner is threatening to break it if it
doesn't make its reserve. Let's hope someone saves it!

Mechanical spares......are you mad, these e23 B10's are on par with the e24 b9's and B10's where rarity value are concerned, & not to be scrapped or used as a spares source!
We have managed to find 6 B10 e23's still living, and that includes my one!

Ouch! Sorry Ivan!
I simply saw it as a source of mechanical spares!
