The Alpine A110 S will cost 56,810. That is ten thousand pounds more expensive than a regular Alpine A110, and ten thousand pounds is a rather large sum of money. For that additional 10k, you do get more. More power, for starters. Alpine has juiced up that 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine to 288bhp, which is considerably punchier than the regular car"s 248bhp, thanks to a bigger turbo. There"s more as in better acceleration, too, because 0-62mph now takes just 4.4secs, a tenth quicker compared to the 10k cheaper standard A110. There"s more stiffness courtesy of 50 per cent firmer springs, and 100 per cent stiffer anti roll bars. It"s been lowered by 4mm, gets wider, stickier Michelin tyres, big Brembo brakes as standard and an active sports exhaust.
