2025 Alpine A110 Turbo

This 2025-registered Alpine A110 in Fire Orange is the lighter, more focused alternative to the usual mid-engined sports car fare. Its 1.8-litre turbocharged four-cylinder produces 249 bhp and 320 lb-ft through a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, which is enough for a 4.5-second 0-62mph time and a 155mph top speed in a car that weighs little more than a tonne. The A110's appeal has always been its delicate steering, supple ride and agility rather than outright power.

This example has covered just 6,153 miles and has had one owner from new. The Fire Orange paint is paired with black leather, and the options list is more thoughtful than most. It has the active sport exhaust, which adds character to the turbo four, and the Comfort Pack with front and rear parking sensors. The storage package, an auto-dimming rear-view mirror, Alpine-branded floor mats and chrome Alpine badges on the front wings are also fitted. A front splitter from Life 110 is the one aftermarket addition.

The A110 is one of the best-handling sports cars of the past decade, and a low-mileage, single-owner car in a bright factory colour is a good way to get into one. At 154 g/km CO2 and a claimed 42 mpg, it is also cheaper to run than most of its rivals.
