Congratulations! 😍
They managed to recreate the magic of the 1960s original, ending with the result of a sublime driving experience and stunning looks.🥂
Congratulations on your new ride!!!
Beautiful car with the perfect choices (soon to be). Wish we had these here stateside.
Congrats, my friend, on such a gorgeous car!😍
It was a pleasure to read your entire post. At the outset I said to myself “go with the grey!” And black rims with that grey tone is a very appealing look. Such an attractive car!! I wish these were available in the US, just to be able to see one in perso...
Beautiful machine!
Just an incredible machine. And I like the chrome "baguette" on the hood, this is an exquisite classic detail. Overall, excellent color choice. I like the grey, and I like the dark brown interior, I'd probably get something similar. I'm less picky about t...
😆OZ racing is nice but
Vossen, 1221, TWS , Ray's are IMHO the ultimate forged . This one is retro cool ...
Hall of Fame post : )
This is such a beautiful car that is virtually unknown in the U.S.
Thank for sharing your journey in selecting and configuring the A110.
Alas, the A110 is not available in the US and we’ll have to vicariously enjoy it through your wonderful posts. Look forward for seeing more on this amazing car!
Mega congrats, my friend!
a fantastic story, a real pleasure to read. thanks for sharing your wonderful experience with us cheers
Congratulations!
Looking forward to see what you do with the brakes. The light weight of the car will put less stress on the tires and brakes.
Huge Congrats,
mon Ami, BRAVO! I can feel your excitement and passion for the car, like when you get a unique and long-waited watch! I think you made the perfect choice with the Legend version and I love also the grey colour, maybe only the midnight blue with golden rim...
Great exterior and interior colour, like patrick_y is saying.
Very noble and sporty looking variant! Big congrats to it and have fun driving it.
Wow, what a car! Well done Nico!
I enjoyed reading of your thoughtfulness and the care you've put towards changes and additions to your Alpine. It's becoming your specific car and that is extra special. Not a Pure, Legend or S but an "Alpine 110 Nico". Bravo!
Congratulations! You and Gordon Murray both with a110s, excellent company :) This is a great beginning to what I hope is a long story. Watches will continue on but we are at the sunset for these kinds of cars so we must pick now before they are gone.
Electric cars will certainly get better but I don't imagine they will ever be anything close to as light as an a110 in our lifetime. It is a great time to start a new journey with a sports car like this as the options get smaller everyday and soon they'll...
Super Nicolas. Many congrats on your new baby.
I think the colour choice was a wise one, there’s a elegance to this. Not flashy, and not dull, somewhere in between. I look forward to the wheel choice, I’m biased towards matte finishes.
Very very happy for you, dear Nico!
Your emotion comes through every line of text you shared with us. Here’s to celebrating this milestone with you soon! Fuerte abrazo! Alex
Excellent choice, Nico
Especially like the colour combination exterior-interior. Oh, and that chrome baguette on the bonnet… such a great way to connect history and modernity. May you always have a safe and fun trip!
Thanks!
I really appreciate your walking us through your experience. It’s particularly enjoyable for those of us who live in countries where this great car is not available. Similar to your love of watches, you clearly develop both an intellectual and emotional a...
Félicitations Nicolas!
Et merci pour le cheminement que tu nous a conté. Le véhicule me fait penser à une Audi TT mais avec un look plus Boxter. J'ai hâte de lire les prochains tomes reliés aux futures modifs. Yves
Congratulations on a really nice companion
And what an interesting writeup It lets me want to investigate ana possible buy a Alpine myself Probably not, I have other car desires I might satisfy one day Best regards Hans
Awesome car, my friend.
Must be a dream to drive such a lightweight vehicle with a terrific power-to-weight ratio. Love the interior of the Legend. The contrast stitching in particular is a personal favorite. How are you enjoying the dual-clutch transmission? DCTs are really gre...
Thanks, John. I am trying to go under 4 kilos per HP. The car is already at 4.4. So, a bit more HP and 30 kilos less and I will be there. It is a pure cannon ball.
As for the DCT, I surprised myself to like it. It is fast and funny to play with. The OZ rims have a problem, they are fragile. From pure aesthetics, they are killer,s but fragile, hence my choice for the Fondmetal RR 18 which are made for the track. I wi...
Good plans. I look forward to seeing how they develop.
I love DCT...a great transmission. Less driver involvement, in a sense, but paired with the right engine, it is a scalpel. Perfection at every shift, seamless rev-matching, aggressive down-shifts. All-around great. For rims, did you look at forged Titan o...
Alas, there are not many options in terms of rims for the Alpine... Fondmetal with the 9RR 18 or the Evo Corse, one or two OZ, and basta. With the new chassis, it will be 4 mm lower. Which is not much, but enough.
I will take some pictures asap. And make a before / after comparison...
Quelle merveille! Bravo Nico...👍
Wonderful car and an interior to die for. I love it!
Congratulations my dear friend 🎉🎉🎉
Very happy for you on your acquisition and choice of upgrades! I personally think you are on the most enjoyable journey of any car ownership!!! I look forward to your mods update 😃 May the best roads lay ahead of you Nico.
Congratulations my friend!!!
You got yourself a beautiful and enchanting car. One that you can enjoy for the years and years to come. And that exhaust sound is just to die for. A lifestyle in itself. It goes very well with your alluring personality. Enjoy it many years in the best he...
great choice
enjoy it - i like the "baguette" it gives something "vintage" to the new alpine
So are you looking at cars?
I know the Corvette is really special. Then there's the Alpina. Tough choices, Count! Good luck!
Congrats! The competition says hi:)
it’s a gem I m sure, I too considered A110 but needed the trunk space Okie Cheers, Ed~ ...
