Goodwood Launch For Latest Alpina Performance Models

FANCY something different from the usual premium German offerings?

As has always been the case with a new S-Class we can look forward to a raft of new innovations when the new S Class launches late next year; clever stuff that will eventually filter down to the cars of lesser mortals as the technology matures and the cost falls.
