My first thought was orange, a good 70's colour. However, one of your video clips shows a blue version with orange/gold wheels with a silver rim. I'd go blue, the classic colour for the car, and orange wheels giving a nod to the 70's. Blue and orange are complementary colours so will work well together.
The Jägermeister livery really fits always! Except in this case. I think blue is more appropriate for the Alpine. The Jägermeister livery suits Porsche´s, BMW´s or maybe Ford´s (there was also a nice Alfa Romeo), but not necessarily this car. As I said, it's my opinion and your choice. Both are beautiful.
The classic color for the A110 is the metallic blue, and looks fantastic in it...however, the decal kit simply doesn't work with blue, so it may look a bit bland on the shelf without decals.
I’d actually go box art on this one, I think it’s more eye catching. The tyres in the different bags are different compounds , softer tyres on the rear, they also have done the same with the springs for the shocks. I built the lotus europa in this chassis, nice little build, enjoy
I dig this car, being the car enthusiast I am, I would paint it British Racing Green with white or yellow stripes similar to the way my uncle's Spitfire was.
In a more serious vein, I was thinking the same thing, British Racing Green would really nice on this car and it look really good with silver or gold rims.
Okay, I'm late to the party. Your fourth pronounciation of "Jägermeister" is so perfect as of you were born here.👍 Umlauts aren't easy. 😉 I would prefer the blue-metallic. That's the colour we saw here on the streets back in those days and on the newer Alpines. Not meaning the last version which they released a few years ago, that had no "character". Or you can get your hands on the fun stickers named "Jägerschnitzel" in the right size for the model then do it in orange.🤣
Hi, watch this video for painting guides. ua-cam.com/video/yCLyS4i-ijI/v-deo.html and As for all the M chassis info, I would take a look at a fantastic site called tamiyabase. It gives you all specs on every Tamiya kit and chassis.
I like both colours but slightly prefer the blue. When mine finally arrives i will do both colours as i got another bodyset and wheels from the bay for an absolute steal!!
Look at 1:52 of the video he superimposed either the car or the image in front of the box you can barely make out two body posts on the right side of the vehicle.
Another great video. I wish I could show you my orange JAGERMEISTER 1/5 FG SPORTSLINE 962C Porsche. It’s really beautiful RC that I installed all upgraded electronics.
At 2:30 the picture of the car is bigger than the box it's on? That got me confused and then I suggest things like do it in the Jun Watanabe Hornet livery and replace the Hornet with the deer head from the Jägermeister logo.
I will probably get one too this time (was only 99,- Euros, when they sold out two years ago 🙄) and I wanna make it a street version in pale metallic green or maybe pale yellow, similar to the one in your clip. Are the additional front lights, needed for the Monte Carlo version, still on the frame? A bit lazy, they don't include the proper length bumper pieces with this one.
Was thinking a Lavender base coat with orchid and honeydew stripes would be rather fetching, bubblegum rims, maroon window tint with seafoam metallic on the chrome and bumpers. And some airsickness bags.....
In my mind, only a German car makes sense with the Jaegermeister livery (as the actual racing cars that had it, such as Porsches and BMWs), but NOT for the Alpine. Besides, the metallic blue is so perfect for it. It's just right. Even if it's unoriginal, it just looks great. I could never figure out why Tamiya didn't re-re the original rims for those that wanted to do a more accurate build. I got all the bits and pieces, from body, trim, headlights, etc., down to the stickers of the classic original livery for the A110. All I'm missing are the rims, which are nowhere to be found. Sigh...!
Nice Video, nice car. "Jägermeister" is pronounced commonly as you did, but the ä (a Umlaut) is pronounced like the “a” in Apple...quite a tough one. On the fence to buy the car...
Thanks for sharing. I would go with blue. It gives it a more classic look.
Blue is THE colour for an Alpine of the 70’s
It's definitely got to be orange with that livery and decals, it looks fantastic!!
Lime green looks the absolutely brilliant on that body.

Why choose? Do both blue AND orange! Combine the liveries....make it awesome the way you usually do. 👍
YES ! it is not easy to stand on one leg?

I think you should go for classic blue metallic :) not too fond of the Jägermeister orange
I imagine it will look cool in either colour my friend! Thumbs up bud!
Def blue keep it old school

The only car that should ever be orange is the Bond Bug so it's blue for me. Blue also happens to be my favourite colour so it's no contest really.
Great vid Gavin, I'd say Blue with the Gold wheels, Orange jagermeister should always be a Porsche 🤪😎
Box art looks Awesome 😎
Nevermind the colour, I want the 6 spoke wheels.
Being new to Rc models please can you explain the different chassis that you talk about and the best way and how to paint the vehicle bodies, Thanks.

Orange unless you pick up the Monte Carlo stickerset, in which case I'd edge slightly to the blue.
Blue, the year I was born

Problem of going blue is there is no decal to line the headlight bucket so you would have to mask and paint the chrome light clusters.
Orange 👍
Looks ace.. one quick question why did you Photoshop image of the car on the box .?.…..🤔...👍🇬🇧😎....orange..
Look at 1:52 of the video he superimposed either the car or the image in front of the box you can barely make out two body posts on the right side of the vehicle.

Got to be orange in my opinion, full box art. Beautiful.
Orange will look boss 👍👌
Great show - have u done the build?
Maybe get a second body & decal kit & paint one in a metallic red with the decals & one in box art with the decals ?
I really like the Jagermeister box art look.
Definitely orange
Have to go orange
I think you should go a nice girlie pink metallic
Australian pre-order price is only $210AUD from some retailers.
I Think blue as don’t see many in that colour
At 2:30 the picture of the car is bigger than the box it's on? That got me confused and then I suggest things like do it in the Jun Watanabe Hornet livery and replace the Hornet with the deer head from the Jägermeister logo.
Movie magic Stef.
I love the sound of an Alpine looks like a mix between a Volkswagen beatle and a Mercedes and S550 gullwing
Great little kit.. boxart does it for me👌
Hello from southeast alaska I'd say go blue
If you can combine the liveries it'll look sick
So tempted by one of these as well, but again I wouldnt know what colour to go for
I will probably get one too this time (was only 99,- Euros, when they sold out two years ago 🙄) and I wanna make it a street version in pale metallic green or maybe pale yellow, similar to the one in your clip.

Im still leaning towards orange sir.
Orange seems cooler on a tiny car but the blue does have a better history to it, still would be orange if it were me :)
Orange all day long....it really pops, and everything else is plain blue or silver 👌👍
Will m08 chassis ever be apart of these kits or will it always just be a bodiless kit ?
That is a questions only Tamiya knows.. You would think so at some point I guess.
Was thinking a Lavender base coat with orchid and honeydew stripes would be rather fetching, bubblegum rims, maroon window tint with seafoam metallic on the chrome and bumpers.
And some airsickness bags.....
🤣👍
Go orange, I've got the NSU TT with the same decals and in my opinion, those colours look so cool.
Une voiture mythique chez nous en France !
La lapine 🐇 🐰. 😁👍🏻
Just had a thought, Charlie is your doggo 🐕🦺 😁.
A year before you was born? That's same here man lol. 1974

The default color of A110 is French Blue. However, this orange colored one must be a piece of significance.
I'd go orange looks good on the box art
Nice Video, nice car. "Jägermeister" is pronounced commonly as you did, but the ä (a Umlaut) is pronounced like the “a” in Apple...quite a tough one. On the fence to buy the car...
I like that chassy. I bet the rear tires are softer. Just a guess.
Yep you are correct.
I’ve got the blue rally version so mine will be orange when I eventually get one.
Go Orange!
Definitely blue
was the first on a M-02 ?

She will be building this on the show as she likes the look of it but isn’t free until the kids summer holidays.

If you’re going to pronounce Jäegermeister properly you should do the same for Alpine - the French say it Alpeen 😉
Orange and then buy another body paint it blue
