Yup, it's the twin turbo diesel from the 123d.

The previous D3 was simply a mildly tuned 320d

I thought they were 3 litre diesels, why would anyone buy this apart from the Alpina badge?

Was behind a Kahn range rover today, mum asked me who made Kahns.
The quad exhaust was loose as anything!

Thats a discreet little number, very subtle.

Yes, three of them every day, two streets from me. D3 Touring, B3 and one other but I don't know the model name.

I'd feel like a complete plonker taking pics of them.

They're just Alpinas.

Because it always was £5 cheaper than a 320d M Sport or something, IIRC.

I honestly think it's brought Alpina down, especially with its boggo spec.

Thats not Insured according too AskMID unless the database is slow? and the wheels arent original and look a bit naff, and the rear is missing a rear valance, if its a real lotus carlton at all?

Its a 24V GSI and not a Lotus carlton..

Interesting that it's not insured, it has appeared in our work car park and not moved for 2 weeks.

Amazing spot, a 2 litre diesel 3 Series at a BMW dealer

I thought he posted it because of the number plate which to me looks like CHEESEE

Some Alpinas are worth posting.. I would certainly post a B7 if I saw one and took a pic!

Would you really be bothered to take the pic in the first place though?

Spie has one of them so it's common and not allowed to be posted anymore...

Looks stunning mind
