Was the program modern day as in recent or was it using old 1990's footage?

The program was new but the footage was from 2000 ish. It was about kids born around the millenium. You can watch it on i-player and the owner is extensively interviewed. Just don't see an Alpine very often on TV these days.

Do you mean to say that there are two of them in this area, 03 & 20? :shock: :shock:

I have never seen another Le Mans in the Luton/Dunstable/Bedfordshire area in all of the many years I have lived here!!!!!

I know there is one just outside Rugby in a village called Yelvertoft.. The owner rarely takes it out.. last seen it about three years ago... His two sons each have a GTA Turbo.. so it's very much a family addiction...
IF I ever see it again, I will try and get it's number...
