186 mph Alpina-fettled BMW 3 Series goes on sale in UK
The twin-turbo, 400-horsepower Alpina B3S has been let loose on the UK market. With just about 400 pound-feet to get you off the line you'll get from 0-to-60 in 4.7 seconds.
That might not sound too impressive for an Alpina, but you'll be able to hang with Porsche Carrera S's, and that's not bad for a 3 Series. Staying away from hard going will get you another impressive number, though: 24.2 combined miles per gallon (29.1 Imperial). The Alpina B3S is offered in Saloon, Touring, Coupe and Convertible, with deliveries beginning in July.
