My 1st Alpine,

What reliability!!!?? They arent that bad, just when things do go wrong on the turbo they are nearly always harder and more expensive to sort than atmo.

Only on the engine side of things and thats normally trying to work out whats wrong .Everything else is the same for both

Atmo 20 mpg Turbo 30 mpg

Get down to the RTOC Nat Day on Sat and see which you prefer

ha!! i wish i could, sady i dont fancy taking the 5. as i dont want to Blow her up before selling it!!

if i can find a Pearl one at the Right Price i Prob wont mind if its a turbo or not

if your only reason for not going to the RTOC day is "you might blow up your 5", then hire a car for the day. If you can't afford to hire a little car for the day, then you will find GTA ownership rather more complicated.

mmm, i want to go to look at a Alpine in the flesh. as the last time i saw one was years ago,

Get the g/f tanked up the night before, she will sleep in the car and wake up on arrival. Will she notice the difference between the 2 shows...... you will, there will be some Alpines at one of them!

You might get Shadi's car for £4995 if you speak to him. 07958274323

He won't let it go for any less.

Might be outside your budget but it is the colour you wanted (pearl white) and a turbo.

It's in the for sale section and I'll be posting some more photos up shortly.

Hi Mr Raider

My 2 cents probably aint worth that much but i brought me first gta about 4 months ago and i aint regreted one minute of it, f%$=c&in awsome drive and good fun to work on. I searched for about a year, for both versions, managed to find a turbo ver. that had most mechanical areas sorted (leaving me the easy bits).... but what a car, no real troubles that you wouldn't get from any other car, had 4 people in her for a day out and taken it to the lake district for a weeks holiday, the only problem...the speedo broke, but hey, it kept my 'classic insurance' sweet

just outnumber her with cars..... works for me

had 4 people in her for a day out and taken it to the lake district for a weeks holiday

Kool thats were i live!!

mmm 5k yeh would be at the top end of my budget, and would have to be in good con, as there wouldnt be any money there for a Respray.

and it seems to have done a few miles, to others for sale,
il have to see what the bank Manger thinks

tell the bank manager it is for home improvements!
