It`s the alpina mounts for the M30 engine.

and if someone wants to do a M30 swap, which motor mounts have to use? except Alpina ones.

I am told E28 535i ones are better than E34 535i since they give a bit more under sump room for low bumps etc

Sure you can, but unfortunatelly I have no special connections in terms of BMW parts avaliability. If something is avaliable in BMW AG every BMW Dealer in the world can get you this.

Ovcourse I can get some discount but if you calculate shiping costs it will probably be the same.

Send me part numbers you're interested in and I will check the prices here in Poland.

Thinking of what color to put on the Alpina, and now I am very close to this. I have never seen it in real life and can not find any photos of an E21 in that color.

now Lars -I really love this colour

roughly translates into "a green cat" in various euro lingos?

Image it with the silver ALPINA striping...stunning.

Here is a litle bit lighter zyprussgreen.





And right color, wrong car

At least Zypress green is an original E21 color, Achatgreen never was available on E21's, that might be a consideration. Or perhaps use Alpina green, used for the E24 B7s? There's one in this color not too far from here...

There was 84 ( or if they delivered it in 83/84) 315 made with Achatgrün. The color is on the configurator on E21-board.de http://www.e21-board.de/wbb//farbtabelle/metallic.html

But you know my german knowledge. Understand what I want to understand.

And one in germany





Not sure of those colors, but they looks a bit darker then the zyprussgreen.

I dont know if this is original in achatgrün, but I maybe think there are some here on the forum that knows.

dear lars
I am looking forwrad to meeting you at some stage- we seem to have the same outlook on life as well as v similar cars!
anyway just love your sign-off- please tell us more about the new one coming?
Re greens- there is a very nice Ford Green metallic colour used on Focus etc that is worth investigating

won't the rare alpina lose provenance if you change the colour? the standard colour is one of the best the e21 comes imo.
