"As far as the 2002 tii with Alpina A4 engine goes, seems to me it did pretty well for what it was (a 2002tii with a documented Alpina A4 engine and some nice parts - cobbled together)."

 

I promise in no sense of defense; but I am in the process of purchasing the said A4 in this thread; the documents support the Alpina being shipped to Buchloe within a week of delivery with the following conversion being performed; much more than just an "a4" engine.

 

The Fahrzeugbrief details quite a few Alpina installed upgrades @ new; the A4 engine, Full suspension kit (Greendot); ventilated rotors/4-pot caliper, front spoiler, and wheels (all Alpina). It also has the q/r SB, Dog-leg c/r 5-speed, Alpina gauge cluster, Alpina wheel, Rentrop/Turbo Seats, etc.

 

I am delighted to have a factory modified A4 with such a well documented conversion performed and will enjoy each and every mile behind the wheel...all smiles here!

Congrats on your purchase! I certainly hope the car gets driven on some twisty roads instead of living in a climate controlled garage (or living room).

Thank you Jim...!

 

I will drive this car fairly often; and it has been over the last 8-years despite being a part of one of the worlds largest private 02 collections. It has been very well cared for during this time. Considering my abilities and means, this A4 is the closest I will get to the "ultimate 02"...it is a keeper; it has found its home!

I am sure that your '......ALPINA......' will bring you many hours of enjoyment.  Have fun with it.  The A4 motor is outstanding, I ran one in my tii for many years.

congrats on your purchase Cracker! I think you got a great deal.  as an owner of a 74tii / A4, it's a fantastic car to drive and has provided many miles of enjoyment.

Probably because they added the larger rear brakes.  The Turbo rear drums were the same as the e21 320i but used a larger slave cylinder ( same as used on the e9 2800’s with rear drums.
