R5 Raider,
If you say you haven`t seen an Alpine `in the flesh` for a number of years you can always have a trip up the West Cumbria coast to Workington/Cockermouth area and have a look at my GTA Turbo and if you`re a very good boy you might get a drive in it. Maybe make you decide wether you want an Atmo or if a Turbo will suffice.
Let me know and if this is OK we can make some arrangements.

That interior must have cost a fortune - those yellow cows are very rare beasts!

I would offer you a go in mine....but it probably wouldnt give you a realistic feeling if you are buying one for road use....its a quite noisy, light, stiff and a bit quicker.
