I also think experience counts, especially personal experience, and I suspect you driving your 2.0d would NOT have a vast experience on the handling of any vehicle Alpina have produced over the years.

Feel free to go on and try to blind me with the science of suspension etc. but I suspect it is a load of tosh.

IMHO of course.
This is my original post:
It looks nice, but I would be seriously worried about destroying those wheels on the pot holed roads in Britain! I would imagine the ride would be quite harsh too?

That was my opinion followed by a question on harsh ride. This was not a dig at you!

I have just had 4 years experience with an E92 M3 and 2 M sport BMWs before that. I have 20 years experience as an engineer!

Saying any more to you is as suspected - a wast of time!
