Description
The Alpine A110 could be affectionately referred to as a French Porsche Cayman, but that might be doing the little Alpine a disservice. As Thierry Henry might say, the Alpine has some added Va-Va-Voom.
The new and improved A110 was first launched in 2017 at the Geneva Motor Show - not only harking back to the original A110 of the ‘60s and ‘70s by name, but also in style. There is a clear classic influence in the modern A110s styling, its petite and elegant lines ensure it stands out in a sea of modern euroboxes.
This particular A110 is a Premiere Edition meaning it was part of the unique pre-order by app process applied to the first 1955 units. Buyers were able to spec their car to their choosing and were required to place a deposit before even learning the total sale price of the car.
Thanks to its status as a Premiere Edition this car benefits from an impressive set of standard fit options including; sports exhaust, carbon fibre Sabelt seats, cruise control, air conditioning & a focal sound system. On the exterior you’ll find a classic inspired shade of Alpine Blue which is in excellent shape, complemented by 18” alloy wheels hiding a set of Brembo Alpine-branded brakes.
Settle in to the Sabelt bucket seats and you’ll find an up-to-date infotainment system with bluetooth connectivity and satellite navigation. The Focal audio system really does take you by surprise, it is crisp and bassy without any rattles that you might expect from such a lightweight car. You’ll also find flappy paddles to control the impressive dual-clutch transmission.
The odometer reads just 11, 592 miles from new and the car has had just 2 owners from new. We sold the car for its first owner to the most recent owner, both Alpine enthusiasts who have pampered the car. This must be one of the best examples of these highly desirable and highly specified Premier Edition cars.
Open the engine cover and you’ll see a 1. 8-litre turbo charged engine, producing a hair under 250bhp and 236 ft lbs of torque, a common foible of these 1. 8-litre units is the alternator, but need not worry here as this was replaced under warranty by Alpine and the car comes complete with the remainder of it’s Alpine warranty as well as a complete set of books and main dealer service records.

Renault have been building incredible performance cars that often are overlooked because of the badge that they wear, but that needn't be the case with an Alpine. After all, you have decades of motorsport history and a current F1 team to back you up.
Razor sharp pinpoint handling, and great looks, this A110 is sure to put a cheeky grin on your face at every opportunity.
