Ah, the Alpine A110, what a car... One of the finest french cars ever, on the road and on the track. We used to make some really exciting cars, but now... Well, nothing, and it's a shame.

Unfortunately I can understand you,
but I don't think I exaggerate if I say that the same "trend" is worldwide.

Thank you for sharing. This is a good study of one of these cars, an identical one which will figure in a story I'll write in the future driven by a rather acerbic and rude French fellow.

No problem
The story seems interesting

It will involve American Autocross, and also a rather well-tuned Fiat-Abarth TC1000, A SAAB 850 Montecarlo, and a Volvo PV544. I need one more interesting classic old autocross vehicle and am still thinking hard about that. Maybe an old Lotus Elan with a straight Stebro exhaust- which was legal at the time.

I and one of my characters have always liked the A110 very much, and of course, this fellow refuses to let her try it.

Interesting cars(the 1000TC)
for the other car I would think a "big" Delta S4...

After talking to some friends-- the car for the American character should be a 1969 Yenko Stinger or a clone of one. Autocross in the states usually favors those older, smaller RWD cars. ^_^

Especially old or classic rally cars
Nowadays rally is too poor of emotions

Funny I was reading up about Alpines last night! I was surprised to discover the company is still going!
