BMW 3.0CSiL 4355008 Alpina
Below: Silverstone in early eighties, BMW car club events Below : likely Longleat early 1980's Note in the background a 18 ft Plancraft BMW boat with a M30 BMW Marine engine. Title:
Model code: 7071 Outside color: Polaris metallic (060) Mileage: 140 000 km in 2012
Modifications: Converted by Alpina in May
1974, including 3.0 liter D-Jetronic engine (250 bhp),
5-speed ZF gearbox, special clutch assembly, larger
diameter exhaust, larger anti-roll bars (front & rear)
and larger brake discs. Original Alpina invoice for DM
12,000; the price of a 2002 in 1974!
Comments from 2012: new 1999 owner (Alpina
addict) bought the car at what was, at the time, the
highest price paid for a road-going CSL Batmobile. Car
has done several great road trips with the car,
including a 2-week 5,000 km trip which also included the
Mille Miglia course. The engine was rebuilt last winter;
it had started blowing a bit of oil when engine braking.
Interseting side note: it shares a garage with an
original CSL Gr 2 race car - the 1977 Luigi Racing UFO
which was runner-up in the 1977 ETCC (and would have won
outright if not for having been disqualified after
having won the race at the Nurburgring) and which won
the IMSA class at Le Mans, finishing 8th overall
