A short story about my E31.
My first E31 - Alpina B12 5.0 #79. More details about it - here: http://www.8er.org/forum/showt…?15715-Rare-E31-in-Russia
Unlike many fans focus on E31 I noticed by accident. In 2011, I saw ads from E63, and saw the section on E31. The appearance of the car struck me, and I remembered that I had seen her as a child in some car's catalog. I became interested in it, but, at first, bought E39 540 Touring 2001. It was an amazing machine with a very rich set. Alpina B12 was sold in 2008, but nobody bought it - everyone thought that she was in a bad condition. In the spring of 2012 the price dropped, and I went to Moscow to watch it. This will help me my friends who thoroughly know E31 (Oleg "Tourist" and Ivan ''John Render"). The machine was able to "3". I sold E39 and bought it. E39 bought a fan from Novosibirsk. He brought it to perfection! https://www.drive2.ru/r/bmw/288230376152042931/
At Alpine, I went one year. I drove her 40,000 km in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus. In the spring of 2013 I changed to Ivan at E31 840 (there were circumstances in the life). In Е31 - 30,000 km, also of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus. I sold it in August 2013. This car was in good condition, and the man who bought it, and promised to bring it to the ideal. But he lied to me - in the summer of 2015 car stood in the garage without a trace of the work...
I bought the E31 following the spring 2014.
This car was brought from Japan in 2008. The owner has worked hard to restore, but then "blown". Car condition - a very good, full of the original. You can read about my travels on it in the other topic (I drove her for more than 10,000 km).
