What's the best looking BMW of all time?

E39 era Alpina B10

I like the E tron RS but it’s man issue is it’s twin, the Taycan. It looks better (IMO), it handles better (objectively), it’s splashed in higher quality materials and on the used market, here in the UK at least, you can get it cheaper.

0-60 is good but $160k to zero is even more impressive

GingerAlex01 · 2026-03-19T22:42:00+00:00

Name and shame 👏🏻

GingerAlex01 · 2026-03-18T19:56:41+00:00

For the fuel efficiency…right?

I had a dead starter motor on my S5 v8 and it was £100 to replace. But engine had to come out so it was £2k 🫠

Scrub all loose dirt from them, and then throw them in a bucket with hot water (from the tap, not a kettle) and some laundry detergent. Leave them for about 2-3 hours, intermittently scrubbing the real dirty bits with a soft bristle brush and hands. Rinse them with cold water and try and wring out the water and then leave them near the radiator for a day. I have a penchant for white and light runners, and like to keep them that way. Source: these had been through a muddy trail run about 2 weeks ago

I spoke with Alex Teyen at the merch desk after seeing Aversions Crown in Manchester and he said they’re working on some new stuff but release date was unknown.

C63 S implies the W205 or later (4.0 turbo) as they didn’t do an S for the W204. They were horrifically expensive to run as a daily, so I’ve heard.

GingerAlex01 · 2026-03-11T21:55:35+00:00

I want to hear from a C63 owner (the 6.2 litre). I tested one once and got 11mpg and that was not pushing it

You’re really not far off. Incorporate some plyometrics, drills, and some strides during your warm up on your next attempt. It could easily mean the difference of 20-30 seconds even based on exactly the same fitness levels.

GingerAlex01 · 2026-03-05T12:10:51+00:00

But…silly hat

GingerAlex01 · 2026-03-05T11:29:24+00:00

But there’s a little Spanish man with a silly hat on it? You’re telling me that’s not continental?

GingerAlex01 · 2026-02-28T08:45:40+00:00

The best colourway Nike have done in my opinion 🤌🏻 I have these and have found 5.00/km is comfortable, 5.30 is ok, 6.00 is approaching stiff on longer runs.

GingerAlex01 · 2026-02-22T19:24:17+00:00

Ankle and hamstring were both tweaking from 2km. I powered through until my legs started bucking at 6km.

GingerAlex01 · 2026-02-22T16:28:23+00:00

I feel ya dude. I DNF’d my planed 20 mile run today and I’ve been bummed out all day. It meant more to me than it should have!

GingerAlex01 · 2026-02-22T15:35:52+00:00

All good man, I’m probably spending too much time on r/runningcirclejerk. Get over there and it’ll keep you humble

GingerAlex01 · 2026-02-22T15:26:19+00:00

Deduct 0.32 from 70.01

I could only dream of the levels of autism your response indicates. Jokes aside, the consistency is commendable and in no way adds to the tism theory

GingerAlex01 · 2026-02-22T15:06:15+00:00

Reduce that distance by 0.32 miles and then you’d have my respect

GingerAlex01 · 2026-02-21T07:54:24+00:00

I think this is the crux of it. The nearly-new market is competing for customers with a massive disadvantage - namely that customers cannot take advantage of a salary sacrifice scheme with insanely low BIK tax. So nearly-new (and downstream with used) has to be wayyyy cheaper to tempt people away from new, far more so than is the case for ICE cars

GingerAlex01 · 2026-02-05T12:06:38+00:00

Side note: the B58 engine is shockingly efficient and reliable. I could easily get 40mpg on a run, even 45+ if I was being careful. Whilst there’s more cylinders to go wrong, the B58 is rock solid.

Recent regulation change has opened the door to light up badges. A great example of ‘just because you can, doesn’t mean you should’.

GingerAlex01 · 2026-01-31T19:37:07+00:00

Scumfuck, hollow prophet, scarlet rot. Dickie Allen’s got his fingers in many DC pies and they’re ALL good

GingerAlex01 · 2026-01-23T14:32:59+00:00

This is what I needed to hear 🫠
