Love the Platinum leather, and the Alpina overall, but should have left the roof rails on!

I'm going for carbon black next time.

Silver's been done in the UK and although the titanium grey looks well when it's clean and shiny, it's not so good when it's covered in road grime.

Carbon black

With 530bhp on tap the idea of strapping anything to the roof is a non-starter. Personally I think the roof rails are daft and spoil the lines of the car, but each to his own! My previous B10V8 Touring also had the rails deleted and it does make the car more purposeful.

I saw your thread on www.m5board.com titled 'The other B5!' I think it was.

Looks nice mate.

Indeed - there are now three UK B5 Tourings. Green, Blue and Black. First two have the roof rails, mine does not. Total of 15 planned but not sure that figure will be reached!

This is the first time i see an alpine B5 touring and i need to say: it looks very good.
Nice you removed the roof rails...

Congrats with it and have fun
