Get a group of classic car enthusiasts together and the conversation will inevitably turn to future classics and what we should buy now. For something a bit different how about an Alpine? Even better, a special edition like the 70th anniversary editions that have just been launched.
ALPINE A110 R 70: THE BRAND’S 70TH ANNIVERSARY VERSION – priced from £103,345
Carbon fibre is the predominant material on the A110 R 70, from the front bonnet to the rear window, including the roof and rear spoiler. Its 18-inch wheels, also made of carbon fibre, are highlighted with a white trim. The sleek chassis of the A110 R remains at the heart of the driving experience, accompanied as always by the 300 horsepower (215 kW) engine and its torque of 340 Nm.
Available in ten different body colours, this version has four interior design schemes from the Atelier customisation range. With Michelin PS CUP 2 tyres as standard, the A110 R 70 has an Akrapovic© exhaust and seven possible colours for the Brembo© brake callipers.
THE TRICOLOUR EDITION A110 R 70 PAYS TRIBUTE TO THE 1955 A106
The limited edition A110 R 70 includes an exclusive series of 70 units in Bleu Caddy, 70 in Glacier Blanc and 70 in Rouge Sismique – in reference to the iconic photo in which Jean-Charles Rédélé chose three tricoloured A106s to officially present his first production car bearing the logo of the brand newly created in 1955, in the presence of Pierre Dreyfus, the CEO of Renault. The interior is available in blue, white or red, with all-new Sabelt© upholstery matching the chosen body colour, as do the 18-inch carbon-fibre wheel rims, which are colour-coordinated with the bodywork.
ALPINE A110 GTS: THE COMBINATION OF PURE SPORTINESS AND REFINED COMFORT, from £67,311
Arriving to replace the GT and S versions, the all-new A110 GTS offers an exhilarating driving experience based on the A110 S chassis without compromising the everyday comfort of the A110 GT. The A110 GTS boldly combines pure sportiness and refined comfort on the road and the track. Its vocation is to provide thrills while ensuring a serene daily drive. With this version, the Atelier catalogue is expanding to include five new body colours. Bleu Paon (Peacock Blue) and Orange Acropolis (Acropolis Orange), two colours from the ‘heritage’ catalogue, as well as three new matt colours: Orange Solaire (Solar Orange), Bleu Eclipse (Eclipse Blue) and Gris Acier (Steel Grey).
The A110 GTS boasts the A110 S’s sporty chassis and is powered by a 300 horsepower (215 kW) engine delivering 340 Nm of torque at 6,300 rpm. As an option, a new GTS aero kit, derived from the A110 R aero kit, includes a front splitter, side skirts, rear spoiler and rear wing with carbon-fibre gooseneck mounts, providing better downforce for even greater agility. As an option, its 18-inch GT Race wheels are mounted on Michelin PS CUP 2 tyres accompanied by Brembo© brake callipers, available in a choice of six colours.
The new GTS Grey leather interior complements the carbon fibre exterior to reinforce the vehicle’s racy character. The cockpit is available with optional black leather seats or colourful Alcantara© Atelier racing seats. The Focal© Premium audio system is also standard.
