The 'S' does 0-60 in 4.4 seconds and 161mph coupled with 40mpg (even when driving 'enthusiastically'). The double clutch gearbox is excellent (jumped from a 718 Cayman PDK into the A110 and never questioned the gearbox). After extensive research, number crunching and soul searching I just ordered the A110s. I looked at the market. Took everything for extended test drives (days not minutes). The Alpine makes too much sense to ignore; performance that leaves you grinning from ear to ear and an everyday practicality that allows it to be used as a daily drive. Is it a 718 Cayman basher? Only the Porsche GTS4 and the GT4 would be 'better' but then you are in a different ball park. Go and try one. Get your head round the fact that you don't have to play 'German badge wars' any more and enjoy arguably the best sports car around. For anyone interested the film was shot Near Compton Abbas airfield, just south of Shaftsbury, Dorset. My local area and roads I drive often.

I have to say, I think the modern A110 is one of the few cars that really pulls off the retro design look. I think its absolutely gorgeous from every angle. I think this is largely due to it still being quite small. Other cars (500 and Mustang) have grown in size exponentially, therefore the design language doesn't look right.

It’s true, the TT‘s Design has become rather aggressive with the 3rd generation. I still admire the pure and neutral design of the 1st 😗👌🏼 As to the Alpine: great looking car, but I honestly don’t understand the price policy

@@andreidanielpetre is it actually? I don’t know the figures, but cannot imagine the alpine branch is a highly profitable company. I guess it’s mostly an image support for Renault. Fact is: equipped as it is at its price, it remains uninteresting for the majority of car-enthusiasts. And again: I truly like its design

I know May and Co. don't want to do this sort of thing a lot anymore, but they are the pinnacle of car reviewers. Us TG/TGT fans are loving every second of this, and I would dearly hope they consider doing more reviews for Drivetribe. Mr. James May, thank you so very much for this, and I hope you will do more!
