New ALPINE A110R! REVEALING the MYSTERY CAR at The Shmuseum

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 4 มิ.ย. 2024
- There's been a mystery car at The Shmuseum, and it's time to pull back the covers to reveal the Alpine A110R! You've seen it in the background of recent videos, and now I'm taking this £100K secret out for a drive to share what it's like. In theory, it's right up my street, let's go and find out!
It is of course an Alpine A110R! The A110 has grown up into a carbon fibre clad, lightweight, dynamic machine and the folks at Alpine UK have dropped it off for me to take out for a first drive and share that with you. Matching the power of the A110S, the GT works on saving weight with extensive use of carbon and features like racing harnesses to replace the 3 points, for a total saving in comparison of 34kg.
Not specifically limited per say, although with the 32-unit run of the Fernando Alonso edition and 100-unit Le Mans edition, even the regular A110R is far from a common sight - especially considering the base price landing just shy of £100,000 - before you've gone over with some optional specification. However, as a big fan of cars that put driving experience first, on paper this is up my street so let's head out for a drive and find out!
Thanks for watching, Tim

ALPINE A110! Knew right away with the front bumper light humps
stpd fck don't spoil it
Same
It’s ev right no gas?
@Bigmute501 not an ev, have an in-line 4 engine
@Bigmute501 EV?!?!?!
Never! Gas power rules!
I just had to say it, but it is gas powered by a 1.8L Turbo 4 Cylinder engine…
The swirls and scratches in that carbon hood made me cry.
If U see what U see, U really have some good eye site.loll, which car company U work for 😅😅😅
@@millerboymiller4316Maybe the camera guy from this video 😂
@@millerboymiller4316 Eye site? 🙄
I'm 20/40 and I could see that shit. 😂
If you don't see the swirls please don't drive a car on the road... @@millerboymiller4316
Was in France in 1973 and saw my first Renault Alpine A110 and fell in love.of course it was also done in Alpines blue.
Thanks for the rare memory.
Dang, that looks really good and I'm sure it's fun to drive. I'd love to have one .
Me too
Forgive me for being an ignorant American, but I’ve never heard of Alpine. This thing looks rather nimble. Nice design. I like it 👍🏼😈
Surprisingly, they don't actually get sold across that side of the pond at all, which is quite odd to be honest!
Alpine is making a big comeback with great cars and they are even in F1.
It's a French marque, owned by another French automobile company, Renault, neither of which have been sold in the United States for a very long time.
@@Shmee150 I generally don’t love french cars, but for a weekend warrior weapon, you could certainly do a lot worse than this. A used Porsche Cayman or Lotus would be worthy competitors, but I’d really like your informed opinion on the refreshed MX-5.
A Cayman or a Lotus would in my opinion be a much better choice. You will hear car dealers cursing French cars as things break on them like they were made to be broken! As a car lover I would go for a Porsche Cayman GTS
It is a brilliant sports car so fun to drive, glad you reviewed. Most people say the a110 ‘pure’ model is the one to get and differently cheaper. I brought one and can’t complain. It is so rare people stop you and ask what it is, it also so small and isn’t recognised as a sport car until it effortlessly zips past other fast cars. It makes it easier to drive in public because it under stating its sport car credentials. I plan to hold onto mine for a very long time.
you mention the Gendarmerie A110, which is quite cool because recently i had managed to spot the UK Merseyside Police A110 in Liverpool this week! they look fantastic!
this is incredible! love all the carbon fiber it has! also here's a fun fact, as far as I know there are no Alpines in Kuwait, not even a dealer
Do you also have carbon fibre in Kuwait?
@@ianholdsworth920did you even see the amazing collection that Shmee filmed in Kuwait?
Show me your carbon fiber then.
I am currently searching for the right lightly used A110 for me. Test drove the GT and absolutely adored it to bits. I mean, it was the comfortable version and totally chill to live with in city traffic and yet it turns into an absolute hooligan the moment you press that red button on the steering wheel. Perfect everyday sportscar in my opinion.
Was thinking you'd bought it for a second. A lovely car for sure
Shmee150 Awesome Video I think it's awesome that Alpine sent you that Pretty cool A110R and I think it's pretty decently priced for what it is
What a unique car looks perfect among the collection!
Fun to see the Alpine, especially with the spec and lots of carbon. I don't see them in the US, but we might have them. Thanks Tim.
Hello, Tim! Great video as always! Cheers
Thank you! Cheers!
This comment is too generic to be from a human
from the back I thought you bought a lancia delta, it was epic, but from the front I realized instantly that it was an Alpine
As an American, but also a car nerd. I knew, by the lights in the front, that it was an Alpine A110. But, not that it was an A110R! One more cool car that we don’t get over here 😢
Love the looks of these I wish my pockets where deep enough
Really enjoy the content on the channel well done everyone 👌👌👌
It makes me so sad that Alpine doesn't sell their cars in North America, means we won't see them here in Canada for many years to come. Still, at least we get to see them and experience them to a degree through videos like this one! Awesome stuff.
It was the exact car I expected. Great car. Would definitely get.
Just love the 110 R!!! Well done 👏🏻, great little car 🚗 👍🏻 Adam aka Azzy n Bow 🐕 👊🏻
Please lend this to JayEmm, would love to see his view
Love your channel Tim. Question, how do the bollards work at your garage entrance?
Beautiful wheels, that car is such a fun toy!!
Shmee! Hope all is well sir! I know I’m a bit late but as for the video with the R34 GTT(R) replica, have you gotten to experience the FL5 Civic Type R? I’d say it’s arguably one of the best future classics as far as JDM cars go! Semi-compact, reasonable power, and the best performance out of a FWD car to date! Definitely will need an exhaust but would make a great shmeemobile imo!
Are you looking to get the Alpine A110 Final Edition when it comes out, which would compete with the GT4RS?
Finally an Alpine at the Shmeeuseum! 😍🇨🇵👍🏿
*Totally guessed what it was the minute I saw the front* 😉
Best TH-camr thanks for inspiring me Shmee
Thanks for the support!
Inspiring for what??? 🤌🤌😅😅😅
Sounds like simething a bot would say
@@pe3117 car videos
@@Tjescoo no
This thing of which I’m a proud owner is everything about lightweight and sensational handling feeling
So glad you have finally gone 4k....👍
You can't half tell the one camera that was no in 4k though... LoL.
Driving videos are so much better in 4k. The Green Hell videos are gong to be so much better.
Decent little car, but those pops would have to go. I'd be driving straight to a tuner to remove them. And Tim......it might be time to junk one of your cameras, the forward-facing cam in this video is trash, so blurry. maybe from the vibrations, but the other cams were fine.
Sure you’ve found Life110 by now, but if you haven’t, go and find them for Geo set up and some extra trick parts for Alpines.
Great video , Top Gear should really make you a host at their show 👏
It’s a good looking car, I really dig it
I’m 8 seconds in and already know it’s the Alpine! That soft cover can’t hide those headlights 😉
Very nice🤩
Bravo🎉!! I love it🥰🥰🥰
I am curious about the speed of the 110 r compared to a 992 Carrera gts on track. They have a pretty similar power to weight ratio, so it should be pretty interesting.
Wow this car is very cool this is very interesting
Wow i love that car, lets see what you do to it. Probably not but I hope you keep it permanent
Such a fun looking car
wow it looks beautiful
Yemann she’s unreal kidd 🔥💯💪🏻
Shmee rocking the matching Omega on the wrist
Good video
Love the new Toy Tim but it’s not you . I bet you’ll end up taking it back at some point in the near future . Love your content . Every time I watch your show my son starts laughing when you greet us . Hi I’m shmee 😊he puts a big smile on my face. Love it
Surprised you didn’t mention the very harsh suspension ? No compromise ! The A110S or even GT are so much more suited for the type of drive you had ! Also those burbles are so annoying, as you said they are absolutely the same every single time you lift off !
Lovely car 😊
Alpine a110r, saw Brad driving it on Wednesday
Wow... that is light... very light.
That would make a great addition, and you could come state side and take it on The Tail Of The Dragon
Stunning car, please take to topaz to get the swirls removed from the fibre glass.
I wish Alpine could catch on here in the states. They’re good cars. 😎
Idk how I feel about it, I’ll take my 2,969 lb Volvo C30, I absolutely loved that thing, so sad I moved to Montana and sold it before then :( wanting to find another one sooon though so badly
This is a VERY nice car indeed...! Add it to the fleet...!!! This thing is something REALLY special.
Is carbon fibre lighter than the lightweight plexiglass that these specials normally have?
Finally a proper toy!
Awesome 😎👍👍
looks damn good
I love the Alpine and I would have a lot of fun driving one, but It looks just way too small, would get me claustrophobic, not even sure I can fit in it. How does it compare to a Toyota Celica? That’d help to understand the scale.
I knew exactly what this was going by the fig lights! Alpine! Too bad we dont have these in the USA
Im at 17 seconds and I see its an Alpine a110 i think
Oh its an a110r? So cool shmee!!!
A friend of mine bought this car a couple of years ago and this is MAD FUN and he owns a Mazda MX-5 and a Lamborghini Huracan!
This car is SO light and SO easy to drive you won't believe it !
Super underrated fun track car !
Not seen Ben here for a long time..
The normal alpine is a great car to me just sad they don't have these available to us in the USA
But you have cool cars in the USA we don't have here in Europe like the new Nissan Z for example.
Is there an option to have all four rims the same?
I really like the look of that Alpine, and the interior is beautiful. The price on the other hand, is a bit high
Wish they sold these here in AZ would be amazing on our windy canyon roads.
Great little car👍considering Jeremy Clarkson is an f1 Alpine fan. Like to see his perspective on this...
You could tell from the front lamps under the tarp. Alpine!
In my opinion that car is pretty badass if I had 100k laying around I would buy one 🔥👍
Good review. The carbon rear engine cover is a step too far for me, aesthetically. I'd prefer a clear plexi window like the R26R / F40.
Excellent review. Some like the pops, but wouldn't it be great if there was a software upgrade so that you can run the sport mode without the pops?!
There is a tuner called Life110 which offers maps that delete the pops, along with different suspension tunes etc.
@TheRealFLX81 Thanks for letting me know. If you install such a third-party map, should this be declared as a modification for insurance purposes?
Biggest advantages of a light car like this: it handles perfectly and really low ownership costs (insurance, tires, brakes, fuel economy...).
I really love them. I think it will be a lovely project nurburgring car
Love the a110
This is a car I think your collection is missing. That and/or the GT4 RS SSR CS which are both drivers cars that put a smile on your face without the lunatic price and power of hyper cars. They are performance cars in their own right and overlooked.
How fast do you have to go for any of that downforce to actually work
Great Small compact sport car. Greatings from Ukraine!
Hi I love the driving screen
Gorgeous little car....that could really use some paint correction.
Phenomenal
New coolest car in the collection
Look at the swirls on the carbon rear window replacement
I lust love alpines , a110 ,a310 , a220 😍 . But a110 is my dream car
It look very fast😮
I wish they sold them in the US. such an interesting car
I think the "regular" one with carbon wheels would be a better buy. I meant 34 KG ant that much. Removing weight where it matters the most would be cool though
This car did a faster lap at the Nurburgring than the Rimac Nevera.
YESS AN APLINE !
Edit : Please tell me that`s a future Shmeemobile
You look super cramped in that cabin.
awesome car, really like it....but 100 rocks???
A Pog mobile.
Fun little thing.
I mean if the video came out before brad had posted it to his insta i wouldnt have known what it was..
Gobsmacked at the price 😳😳
The back carbon thing makes it look like a cabriolet
The V shaped tweel is known in the game as Herringbone.
Saw this coming after your trip to Bicester heritage
Amusingly, this was booked long before, but this exact car appeared in that video without me knowing it at the time as I didn't have the reg yet!
@Shmee150 ohh, cool. Always loved these, James may dailies one as well I believe.
If they made this car louder. It would show its nissan GTR dna
