Apparently it is still possible to find unique Alpina’s in the Netherlands. I regularly check websites such as Autoscout24 and Mobile but always the foreign ones. On the Dutch website hardly any interesting cars appear for sale. Not about two months ago. Suddenly a very poor ad draw my attention. It only indicated that an […]

Another supersaloon is on its way! { 1 }
The E39 M5 has found a new home. I must say probably the best home it could ever find because the new enthusiastic owner is a real petrolhead and a huge fan of this car for which he had looked out for years. Now I have finally driven the magnificent M5 V8 I can only […]

New wintertoy (or must I say a new familycar…) { 0 }
It took me a while to get an other car but the delay had everything to do with the total renovation of our house. About 4 months ago we got the frontdoorkeys from the second owner since 1926 of this lovely little house and now our cottage is almost like we want it to be. […]

The dreamhouse with garage! { 0 }
Finally my girl and I agreed upon a house we both like and which satisfies both our requirements: a detached house with thatched roof, a big garden and a garage for 4 cars! Offcourse it needs a lot of attention because the current owner lives there for more then 55 years and she hasn’t done […]

New project! { 3 }
Since I am the proud father of a babygirl (Lieve) priorities are changing. The Z4 M is out of the collection and I still haven’t got myself a new racer. Instead I am looking for a Touring that will fit the needs. Like integrated childseats in the back. Or a retractable bootfloor for easily packing of all the stuff […]

Le Mans 2010 { 0 }
After driving the M Roadster for 4 months now I can only say it is a marvelous masterpiece of engineering. I added about 6.ooo km’s (now a little over 18.000 km) but it was worth it! The first big trip lead me and my brother to Le Mans to loose our 24 Houres virginity. Two of […]

Driving the Red Naga Cilli Pepper… { 1 }
Today at the end of the afternoon the weather was very nice so I took the Z4 M out of the garage. Driving with the tip of my toe for 15 minutes to warm the fluids and then hit the throttle; this M product is one fabulously fast and thrilling car! With the top down […]

Roadsters and babies, bad combination… { 2 }
Wow, I finally have a (almost) new Z4 M Roadster in the beautiful combination Black / Imolared! The car is absolutely perfect, new in every way. The first owner drove only as little as 11.150 km in it in little over more than 3 years. Not very suprising since he had more than one (7) […]

New project wanted…. { 1 }
Well, what happened? I recently sold both the Alpina as the M5 Touring, so the garage has got room for a new project! As I wrote earlier I am not that into ‘new’ cars, although I must admit that the Alpina was almost upto motoring perfection, but buying an E46 M3 (either as a CSL […]
