As somebody who was a teenager in the 70s and with that car having a 1973 license plate, when I was 14. 1973 was the year, I first remember seeing and loving E9s, I can still visualise it on the Kings Rd in London with an L plate. Now for the embarrassing part :-) -- I also dreamed of a pair...

Yes they do, and I have even found more than one date for the same car.

Yes, built after the Broadspeed E9, as none of the official 21 Werks CSLs built from scratch for racing were built by then, this car 2276000 was the first. So standard street CSL's from the batch of early carb cars were used for testing things before the Werks cars were built. When these Werks...

Wonderful car, impeccable provenance, ownership/history off the charts. If I did not already have a Werks CSL, this would be a no-brainer to own; it really is as good as it gets in the E9 world. Absolutely love it

Hi Scott, I need to go check the size at the warehouse. I bet they would, Ceylon is a great color :-)

At last the set of Campagnolos I have - on an E9

If you are thinking of purchasing a car abroad, unfortunately, even that 25 year exemption is over.......this below from Cars (international shippers) yesterday. Remember this is on top of the 2.5% .............................................................. I hope you’re doing well. We...

Hi Keshav, All is not quiet as it seems, while it sold for $566,978 in US dollars - that is about right for this car my friend and does not reflect the market for racing CSLs at all

Would love to find that poster of the Sebring winner, if anybody has one. The German version is all over eBay, but the English version, not so much.

So effing sad, I feel sorry for anybody in any part of those industries and in our mutual hobby/passion, the idea that some American is going to start a W&N with American workers and manufacturing etc is just assinine, we simply will pay more for furniture and car parts and many other "things"...

Guys - all the talk here is obviously frustrating, but as an Englishman, your government has now stepped over a line, please expect the return of King George and a rematch :-)

Agreed Chris, I was in the market to buy it back if it went for silly money, with the premium it was $296k which I think was about right for that car in todays market. Crazy to think I paid 74,750 Euros (including premium ) for that very car in the Bonhams "Power by BMW" sale in 2011.

My apologies - I should have been clearer. It's not an E9 - its a 2002ti .........here it is in Buchloe at Alpina's 50 year celebration @rsporsche thank you mate - much appreciated, although just getting there is all the win for this little fella

Unfortunately, can't attend, first one I've missed for many years. Doing the Thursday Pebble tour, which clashes, but I hope to say hello to some of you during the week. If you see the "little car that can" 1969 Alpina Werks race car on Thursday or on the field Sunday, please do come by and...

Yep - I bought from the Bonhams Munich auction in 2011 (also bought the 507 boat in the same auction) where Lorenzo had put it for sale, with all intentions to do a restoration, but keeping as much original as possible. It was a great car and I was mixed about how much to restore it and how...

Hi There While, of course, there will be lots of help from the good people here. We do have a little community of E9's up here in the PNW and tend to go on a drive together once or twice a year, often to Whidby island etc. Depending on where you are in WA, I am sure some basic advice can be...

Thanks Scott I think it fits well in the collection and has fantastic history, only raced once in the US at Watkins Glenn in 1978, but was driven by many of the greats in Europe that year, including Derek Bell, Ronnie Peterson, Quester etc

Always a fun little event. I did it a few years running before Covid, with Black M1, Rallye CSL and my Red Z1 (when I owned it) such nice people, especially all the Barlow family. Please tell Thor Hi back, great guy and great car Have fun

Yes, I was merely the circus master who cajoled Alpina and the owners to put this show together :-) with the help of everybody else involved in the Foundation. But as Danny @eastsideM3 is on here and was kind enough to loan his car to the Foundation, I wouldn't be so presumptuous as to...

Hi Lucas Sadly, wrote to them all and all do not have the part. saying it's NLA. I always write first before ordering on any website for a part that is tough to find. It can become a lesson in frustration otherwise Appreciate the heads up though Pete
