Our read
GarageScout Take
What separates this example is how clearly the Alpina conversion can be read in the car itself, from the numbered identity to the dedicated instruments and striped upholstery, backed by service records spanning brakes, cooling, belts, exhaust, and fluids. Its mileage sits below the middle for the generation. The prior repaint and replacement graphics leave exterior originality uncertain, and the car has not passed a California emissions test.
Strengths
- BMW C1 identity is supported by the numbered Alpina plaque, Alpina instrumentation, and blue-and-green striped upholstery.
- German first-registration history followed by US import in 2022.
- Service documentation covers brake, cooling-system, exhaust, belt, and fluid work.
Watch For
- The seller states that the car was refinished in Cypress Green Metallic under previous ownership and fitted with replacement Alpina graphics.
- The car has not passed a California emissions test.
