It was only right to bring the car to the cologne cathedral!

South Africa got a 3.3l version of the Alpina called 333i.

Nice! You started your first european driving experience where I used to live for about 10 years (on the left side of the Rhine in Cologne, near the Türmchenswall and Theodor-Heuss-Ring). You made it over the Zoobrücke without getting "blitzed" by the radar controls, and drove over the Autobahn A3 to the A4 around and back to Cologne. And at some point you also went very close to the place where my early model zinnober-red BMW E30 is parked inside its garage. Very nice to see these familiar places in your video!

Dude Thats awesome you were able to recognize the route!! Small world man!

The thing missing from the tool kit isn't actually missing. It is slot for some electric window crank adapter that came on E23, E28 and some other cars that used the small tool kit shelf as the E30.

That was a fun ride late at night without traffic letting the S14 do its thing in it's natural habitat lol.

This channel should have at least double if not triple the subs. Top BMW content. Diamantschwarz is the most sinister BMW paint IMO - made popular by E30. In USA, diamantschwarz paint on the E36 needed to be special ordered, believe it came as a standard option in Europe. That ///M6 at the end also appears to be in diamantschwarz.

The B3 2.7 is the renamed C2 2.7....the same car. In Alpina speak the C's were the junior cars (C1 2.3, C2 etc) and the B's were the serious versions. Alpina renamed it as a B3 to make it appear more serious. 😂 Catalyst versions used a standard 325i camshaft so are very down on power (about 10-20 bhp) - you need to get the lid off and check the numbers on the cam. A Schrick cam is a good alternative to the NLA Alpina cam. All Alpina 2.7 engines used the 324td forged steel crankshaft and not the 2.7 Eta crank. All 325i 2 door and 4 door cars had the battery in the boot. 23:19.....the sign of a very rich owner: a set of new Michelin TRX!

Great car. Was in Germany a few years ago. That plate he gave you is not original to that E30. That’s a later modern style German plate identified by the blue stripe. These came out around 1997. Prior, the German plates would not have the blue stripe, indicating the country designation. I’ve yet to see anyone at any Euro car show install a period correct Euro plate…. They all are later country designation blue stripe plates. Look up 80s early 90s BMW AG factory photos….. all older style plates, no stripe.
