This Autocar.co.uk review is pretty impressive, and the pics are awesome. Normally, I think that Alpina's bodywork is a bit extreme and I'd normally take a BMW original, but in this case I'm really not sure. As far as the looks go, they've really improved on what I think to be a decently unattractive blunt front end.

Is that some kind of Freudian slip when you put B7 in the title? They do look similar...

Yeah, but maybe, if you're lucky, it'll be an Alpina bus!
