For some reason those Alpina things are worth more pound per pound than gold. I know , but they do suit the 7 series well DVee8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only now that I really understand the difference between an executive car and a luxury car - something like a 5 series is there to pleasant and competent - this does something to you (other than bankrupt you). Maybe it's the way it's quiet on the motorway and seals you off from reality around town, being your own personal, impenetrable, luxurious bubble. The classy, old money charm is almost enough to cancel out the turd circus 2020 turned out to be. Anyone else think the '90s were the pinnacle for the luxury car? Totally agree with this, I had the same feeling with my Volvo S80, after a shit day at work sliding into the leather seats just felt so relaxing. I would get in raging and be completely calm by the time I got home. TheXUDfiles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dome Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 My Rangey came with this effort. Sadly* the original stereo has been replaced so I can't do anything with it. Would've been cool to get it working though The Moog 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is great advice. When they are a chore it's time for a change. It looks lovely. TheXUDfiles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
