@dessimpson i was wondering if ep03nob was a thing! I got this for £80 lol. Guy even sent me the plastic plates. Couldn’t say no and the dvla issued one bothered me for some reason.
Here it is:
Alpine A110S Aero with every option, crazy at £85,000 list price but got it for a whisker over 50k.
Got the full suede interior pack and for what is such a light car (1100kg) it feels so upmarket on the inside not a single rattle/creak or anything and a surprisingly good sound system (Focal with subwoofer).
Not sure if the revised 300PS also made adjustments to the gearbox as the changes are PDK quick more or less but just as smooth whereas the 21 A110S was not as so.
Also the ride quality which was a concern for me going the S was something I need not fear particular on roads I drive locally so far it’s better than my M2 OG and no worse than GR Yaris.
On motorway it was returning 42-47mpg and door to door with some fun A roads thrown in it did 36mpg, it’s bloody quick for just 300PS but mega short gearing and lack of weight.
Cannot wait to get more miles on it but great first impressions!

I’m pretty sure the guy I bought it off just sold the blue fd2 and took the plate off to sell separately.. small world.
The car went to a guy up near Manchester, he then sold it to a guy in Wales I think who had just sold it again. I was half tempted to buy it back if I’m honest.

Looks good, do like the aero kit, hopefully the interior remains rattle free; after 20k miles my comfort seats are annoyingly creaky and I've replaced a handful of trim panel clips that seem to have lost their spring and have turned rattly. Agreed the focal system is brilliant for what it is.

The Alpine looks beautfiul - very unique interested to see how you get on
Exact same engine as my RS300! You have a different 7 speed gearbox though that's why the gearing is short to maximise acceleration.Here it is:

Same has it had the fuel pump recall done? Alpine did a lot of those recently.....keep it brimmed never run the tank dry seems best way to make them not fail!
