This car has changed hands a few times now. I’m still amazed at the prices these cars command.

Rather oddly I ended up with an Alpina Group A ECU for a car like this; I'd bought it of t'internet as it had a stock BMW case for my 1982 car but on opening it up and checking the interior it had an Alpina part number on it; I checked the part number with Buchloe as I didn't recognise it and they confirmed it as a Group A Alpina ECU for an E24.

1995 Alpina B10 4.6 Touring (1 of 1 rhd)
1985 BMW M635CSi (1 of 524 rhd)
1982 BMW 635CSiA (1 of 100's left from the 1000's made and still valiantly fighting against a rusty grave)

I saw this "Group 2" car on Pistonheads. Its not the genuine item IMO, but its half the price of the Group "A" car!

Re: 1983 Gp. A (E24-RA1-08)
if you go to racecarsdirect.com and search for BMW there is always a 635 Group A, or two, for sale. They do command top dollar.
Some like Jim Richards Group A JPS car have been converted back to Group C to be more competitive. They run an extra 100hp in Group C. Over here (Australia) historic racing sees Group A and Group C compete. The 635 is usually in the top 3 to 5 so very competitive but runs the M88 at around 420hp. And needs to against 5 litre V8's, 500hp sierras and the Nissan GTR 4wd.
