The new Alpine topic

[Alpineandy]

They could use the same engine that the F1 cars will use next year!

Mmm something tells me that may push the price of the car up some £600,000

I think that looks pretty good.

Deal dead?

It does not look at all good, with Renault sport in general really. The Clio is not the best, the F1 engines are not up to scratch and the Alpine project looks very up in the air!! Maybe Mr Dell knows what is going wrong at Renaultsport HQ?

Is "skidmark.com" a reputable news outlet? does not sound like it.

now official then...

but, in short, they are claiming that there will be no change to the programme, inlcuding launch date of the new car and security of jobs at Dieppe despite the breakdown of the Caterham deal.

Really glad they are still going ahead with it fair play. Looking forward to seeing whatever transpires.

60k + yeh right + 100 ??

Given the way our Aussie Dollar is going through the floor, I expect the Alpine will be on the high side of $80K and not close to $60K, given the small numbers built. Perhaps a Megane 265 motor could be used, but I think the new turbo1600 is probably where it is at.

this is apparently the real deal:



1800 turbo, 300 bhp.

A120 is the name
