Alpina Burkard Bovensiepen GmbH is an automobile manufacturing company based in Buchloe, in the Ostallgäu district of Bavaria, Germany selling their own cars, based on BMW cars.

Alpina works closely with BMW and their processes are integrated into BMW's production lines, thus Alpina is recognized by TÜV as an automobile manufacturer,

The C1 2.3 version of the BMW (E30) Series is based on the BMW 323i and was available ex works 1983-85 although aftermarket kits remained available. The C1 2.3 was superseded by the C1 2.5 also from the 325.1 E30 class 3 Series for model years 1986-86 and subsequently by the 2.7 litre C2 2.7 again based on the 325i

This vehicle would then appear to be an aftermarket or replica C1 as it is firstly to new and secondly registered as a 320i

DEFECT #1 - AIR BAGS:SIDE/WINDOW

Posted on: 2002-08-14
Description
On certain 4-door passenger vehicles, the side air bag system could deploy in certain non-crash impacts, such as when contacting large potholes or curbs at substantial speeds.

Consequence
This could cause the side air bag and head protection system to deploy without an actual side crash or impact severe enough to cause significant visible damage to the vehicle. Unexpected deployment of the side air bag could cause serious injury if the occupant's head is resting near the side air bag.

Corrective Action
Dealers will recalibrate the central air bag control module to reduce the possibility of such a non-crash deployment. Owner notification began october 25, 2002. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact bmw at 1-800-831-1117.
