Alpina D3 Bi-turbo


Alpina B5 Bi-Turbo goes on sale:


Following the launch of the B5 Bi-Turbo at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in July, the latest Alpina has now gone on sale. Billed as 'the most powerful new shape 5 Series yet', the B5 comes with a 500bhp version of BMW's 4.4-litre twin-turbo V8. Alpina claims 0-62mph in 4.7 seconds and a top speed of 191mph. The B5 also manages 26.2mpg, with official CO2 emissions of 252g/km.

The new car sits on 20-inch alloys in Alpina's characteristic turbine design. To cope with these wheels and the non-runflat tyres, the electronic damping has been recalibrated. The B5's status as top dog in the current 5 Series line-up will eventually be challenged by BMW's own M5. However, Alpina has always managed to find customers who want something a little different to the M Division's products.

Deliveries of the B5 Bi-Turbo to UK customers will start later this year.
