HI Guys !
Looking through some old pictures I came across these pictures that I took in 2007 while on holiday in Cape Town , I think it was in a showroom close to canal walk mall .
Just thought I would share . Sorry the showroom glass was so dirty. Was this a real B3? I remember it being very pricey at that time. Does it still exist?

It looks so much better now with the original rims! Do you have any interior pictures? Do these cars come with the vent gauges as well? Did the car need a lot of restoration work done?
Thanks for posting pics!

Are you referring to the R20 000.00 vent gauges?

That's not the same car gents. The one in the first pic was fitted with a supercharged S50 in the 90's already.

The current owner said above it is the same car that he bought a couple of years back...

So , was the car restored back to original condition with its original engine?

Car in the photo was a supercharged alpina b3 from cpt. Car was supercharged by rob green. Car was sold about 8 years ago and to my knowledge is not in cpt anymore. The wheels were high polished works items if i remember correctly. This car used to run againts superbikes back in the day and was the loudest car i ever heard back then!
