New carbon grille looks epic alongside the existing carbon splitter. Why the first owner did not spec this nose with all the other carbon fitted from new I have no idea! Falling in love with her even more.
I originally owned one of the first 4.3L Vantages (which included the first ever carbon fibre ‘waterfall’ central console which was a unique made to order request), now I own one of the very last of the breed a 4.7L AMR Special Edition.
I have just nipped into the guys at Quicksilver R&D in Witley who have whipped off the secondary cats and popped on some straight pipe to replace. Just driven the 3 miles home and said hello to a whole new world of awesome sound(s)! Thanks to Ben, Ollie and Paul. I really appreciate you guys – exhaust geniuses!
We stopped off for a quick picture outside The Kennels (the GRRC’s club house) at Goodwood today. Obviously shut currently due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Fingers crossed they will be re-opening sometime in July.
It is sad to see the Alpine A110 go. I had planned to keep her for 3-5 years. An amazing drive! Without doubt the car has deserved all the accolades and awards over the past few years. I’m really pleased I have owned and experienced one, though our time together has been brief. Just unlucky that the market has shifted so much that I find myself in the fortunate position to acquire my dream car. Farewell little Bleu.
