The berlinettes were fragile, beautifully designed, lightweight road rockets. For the first time, Alpine Renault enthusiasts around the world can read the complete history of these cars in English. This book is not just for owners of Alpine Renaults, but for all those interested in rallying and its spectacular period of rapid development in the late 1960s and early '70s. Hear from the men who built the cars, some of the great drivers who became famous driving them, the team manager, the Rédélé family – creators of the car – and the mechanics who kept the cars going. The story covers the concept, the first cars, the early road cars, and their entry into competition on the European rallying circuit, with full charted documentary details. The Alpine A110 berlinette was a car born to compete, born to win. This is its story. Review: Fantastic Alpine A110 Book - This is a must have book for anyone interested in Alpine's and rallying. The book details the sheer determination of one man, Jean Redele, who managed to motive a group of people in to a team to achieve remarkable results and a Fabulous Alpine A110 car. Review: Great book - I am a berlinette owner. The meticulously researched history is impressive and provides for me much unknown detail about these rare iconic cars.

The Only thing wrong with this Book was the Publisher Veloces Ridiculous Price of £75. As I expected the Price soon dropped and I was able to buy it for £37.50. Still a lot but reasonable. Since Book wholesalers usually require 50% Discount on the Marked Price this is prettyusual but the Rapid Increase in MOTOR Book Prices, as opposed to other Book Prices which are coming down makes Car Book Purchase a problematic Area. Veloce also still insist on using the same Format for all their Publications which , in some cases , as this one do NOT suit the Book and result in Cramped poorly presented Pictures. All this is a great shame as Roy Smith has done a great job in filling a long standing Hole in Automotive History by writing a Series of Books on the Alpine. Buy this one, at a Discounted Price ! ! while you can because its the only worthwhile Book, In English ,on these great little ALPEENS. !

Not good if you want to learn about the car.
Not really a review of the car, but a review of the competitive results. Disappointing waste of money.

Great read for those interested in the A110!
The book is great if you have interest in Alpines. There is incredible detail and many photos. It is difficult to find a book published in English with this level of information. I unforunately had some shipping damage which we settled with a partial refund.
