Got an A110S and it is bloody brilliant. If you think a car must be a heavyweight GT - then it isn’t for you. If you think a car must have a massive engine - then it isn’t for you. If you think a car must have active suspension - then it isn’t for you. If you think a car must have a German badge - then it isn’t for you. If you think a car must be a manual to be a sports car - then it isn’t for you. If you have never driven one and slag it off - then it isn’t for you. If you can’t see why some of the world's most respected car designers, journalists and petrol heads rate this car - then it isn’t for you. Go drive one and it might just change your mind.
As someone who's had an Alpine A110 Premier Edition for 2 years, it is a little beast. It ALWAYS catches people by surprise and holds its own along side AMGs & M cars. Amazing car, don't judge the 1.8l, it is VERY capable.
Great video Paul , certainly captured the feeling of driving an A110 . I have just ordered A110 gt as wanted balance between comfort and sport. Yes it’s 60k but people should look at the residuals and Alpine PCP option and it makes financial sense ( if ever a car does) . Lots of people don’t realise that with inflation running at 9 % and Likely to be high for next few years , newer cars will hold more value and you balloon payment further down the road will in real terms be less .Oh and chances of me seeing another A110 gt on the road is highly unlikely .
Very good review and well summarised the pleasure we can get with this car. I just got mine an S 2022 and all I want to do is find good roads to drive no matter where it goes, exactly as you commented.
Saw a few of these at the British Motorshow last year. Sadly missed out on a driving experience in one but still got to sit in one. The looks alone in blood orange was a good enough reason for it to be added to my ever growing dream car list. Gorgeous little car.
Underrated has become a term people just say without having a clue what it means. How is this car hugely underrated, it's literally lauded by everyone who drives it.
I like the alpine, and feel like if you bought one, you'd be the only one driving around in one. Has that exclusivity which is cool. Just can't justify that price though.
Supercars of London Awesome Reviews I think you the Alpine A110 GT and S look and sound pretty cool and I think you should definitely get a Alpine A110 S
Why does 300bhp 'sound like a small number'? I really don't understand. A Mk1 Golf GTI was about 115bhp, this A110S is almost three times as much. A Clio 220 Trophy is 220bhp, and weighs about the same, so I'd say 300bhp is not a small number by any reckoning
One of the best cars I have ever driven! However, a cheaper underestimated alternative is an RX8 which gives a similar sense of satisfaction in terms of handling and driver enjoyment.
Paul, if Alpine shudda dropped a manual box in the latest S model, it would have sold a lot better. Oh I'm surprised Seb D didn't give you a run in his A110 a while back.
Unfortunately they didn’t have the budget to develop it in both manual and auto. Auto was the better financial choice for them. It’s a shame but I feel that once they are able to, a manual will arrive whether it’s a future generation of this or the joint project car with Lotus.
@@ChapHammersmith There will never be a manual A110 or A110S. Honestly; with the gearing this short a manual gearbox would not be the nicest option also (for the record I love cars with a manual gearbox).
This one of dream and most favorite car from France!!! in Ukraine, French cars are very cautious and skeptical because of their reliability and cost of maintenance, but this does not apply to commercial vehicles such as RENAULT MASTER, RENAULT KANGOO
Paul you still need to bring back a lamborghini you know you need to mate.and please can you do some motor bike videos and content.thanks.but it's great to see you doing some road trips again.
I appreciate your enthusiasm and it’s one of the best all round daily cars for driver focus but there are better drivers cars out there. Things like a caterham and atom spring to mind but they aren’t that useable. An elise is probably the sweet spot of being driver focused whilst still being considered a ‘conventional’ car. Still it’s a fair bit less practical than the GR
The great thing about UA-cam is that you can watch whatever you want Martin and yet you are still here watching Paul´s ad and commenting... A little pathetic.
Paul Wallace gets to drive around in super/exotic/sports cars. You are a hateful little virgin who probably drives a Nissan Micra. I know who I would rather be.
I have never and will never have any confidence in anything automotive French. Terrible cars. Good looking like French women but they all have a chlamydia 😂😂
You are rather rude, ignorant and vulgar. Do not insult French women like you have just done. The French make very good and different cars. I have only owned French cars and they have been long lived and reliable cars. Unlike the British who abandoned their car industry because they made some very poor cars.

Spot on Spencer.
Shame no manual though would make it
@@dm9817587 Even the most hardcore manual fan wouldn't miss it. The paddles are fab. Drive it and see.
Could not agree more. Driving this car is the essence of pure driving bliss. (A110s owner)

I beleive you nailed the essence of this car - great review!
Proper sportscar.. not like those rubbish 800hp pointless things we have around these days.....I'd have this over nearly all supercars...
Couldn`t agree more!
You nailed it. I can tell you by own experience.

Great looking car, one of very few I would consider ahead of a Cayman.
Sadly not available in Ireland.
Sadly not available anywhere now (in AU)! It flopped badly, makes a Porsche Boxster/Caymen a veritable Volkswagen Beetle!!!!
You could get one here, I've seen an Irish registered one in Dublin! Not sure how servicing would be done though, maybe through a Renault dealer?
There are 4 in Ireland rob. Mine is on done deal.
@@kevinrooney5466 Lovely car Kevin. What are you switching it for?
Spotted an orange one on the road, they look great. The A110 beat a TTRS on carwow I'm pretty sure
Hugely underrated car. A car which reminds people that's it's not all about the numbers which brings enjoyment to driving.
PROBLEM is its FRENCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Problem is price also ,it is just too expensive
@@del21trotter I agree its French that means its got to be alot cheaper say 2/3 or less than a Porsche to even think about it so £30K max

I’d buy on if offered in the US

Just the right amount of pops and bangs👌🏾
Absolutely gorgeous cars!
Nice review well done👍
Supercars of London Awesome Reviews I think you the Alpine A110 GT and S look and sound pretty cool and I think you should definitely get a Alpine A110 S
Looks fantastic in orange
Now I want one! Actually a cool and quirky car
I’ve had many cars. I’m not that young anymore. My A110R is the second A110 I own and I’ve never driven anything so thrilling, easy and precise. Ever.
Are you actually going to buy anything this year ?
Magnitude have stopped picking up his calls
parking the car so close after a corner bit dodgy mate..
Clearly doesnt live in the countryside that was my first thoughts on that bit too haha

After having several RS Clio's over the years I'd pick up one of these in a heartbeat if they were available of here in NZ!
Clio RS were also great cars. Had the last 4 RS Trophy and it was a blast!
And you would never regret
Hey paul great video mate I was wanting to ask what camera setup do you use and lens as your video quality is so crisp and clean 👌
11:38 Don´t crush into my Alpine, pleaaaase ! 😋 A very beautiful color, golden orange
Your recent contents are great but missing that SOuL which you had . More Lamborghini Content please...
Going nowhere, other than round in circles on great roads is what it's all about.
Destination grin.

I wanted to put two thumbs up on this video!
Buy it ….I would go for the GT, if I had the dosh 💰 😀
He hasn’t got the doe either
since when is 300hp not a lot this guys been driving too many lambourghinis
Such an underrated car 🔥🔥
A decent video, good job. 👍
This one of dream and most favorite car from France!!!

Base model is a bargain on finance ....
How much is it watched about 7 videos 46000,48000,51000,54000,57000,59000,and this one is 60000.
Great video wonderful little car! A car for the times I believe you can get about 43 mpg and a car that can be your daily drive.
Dont make me waste 13minutes of my life, should i?
I wish my mazda 3 had 300hp😊
GR86 and Subaru BRZ also have that ‘use all the power’ element to them. Fantastic video Paul, thanks 🙏🏼
Well we know you won’t
Yes
Must say you must be the best youtube var Chanel always good informative and entertaining 👍
Paul you still need to bring back a lamborghini you know you need to mate.and please can you do some motor bike videos and content.thanks.but it's great to see you doing some road trips again.
Excellent.
Sixty grand?? Lol hell no.
Paul said everything you need to know about what's wrong with F1. It's the size of the cars. Smaller cars would mean better racing
Colín Chapman said it (and I’m not the one who’ll doubt him): power is good on the straights, lightness is good everywhere
Nice video but stupid place to park a car,Very dangerous.
Solana will Moon to $1000k I'm sure. Potatoes in the oven already
Lol
Have you changed your opinion since then :D ?
No
NO!
When are you going to review the NEW MORGAN3WHEELER known as the super 3?
Manual please..then can parlez
Clicked on this faster than Sam's MC20 video-- this car is far more interesting
No.
No you probably shouldn’t buy it if you’re Joe public, but you should be different be brave be interesting stand out
Get one Paul!
Brother please give me some money
NO NO NO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THERE FRENCH !!!!!!!!!!!!!! thats the problem
Where?
@@blackbess338 "Alpine A110 S" its French thats the problem
Nice🇸🇦
Would love an Alpina., Or an Alfa 4c (if it had power steering and better build quality) 😎
What problems have you heard about build quality? I have a 4C and they are solid little cars and no reports of build quality issues on the forums
@@goldmax3352 just seen a few video reviews saying the interior is cheaply built and very plasticy

Nooo,
Wait for the GR Corolla or get the new M3.
And its never late to bring the Murci back 🤷🏼♂️💯

I like it, but £60k on a Renault!!! Hmmm…..
what about a Fiat-Ferrari ?
What about a Jaguar-Tata?
@@angelarnaudas 🤣🤣
Wouldn’t even pay 30k for it tbf small and ugly
