That’s so interesting. Also don’t these both have effectively the same drivetrain.

Funny just a few hours ago I saw a Delorean!

Seing this one regularly kind of took the fun out of it. Maybe I’m just jealous

The A310 came in a variety of colors, this one is pearlescent white. A lot of them where blue though, just like most people order their Ferrari red

Partly behind the Delorean, partly in his other garage. He doesn’t have too much tools though. I admire him for this, since I wouldn’t work on my cars if I didn’t have at least a lift

I found it terrible to drive. The pedals are too close together and shifter to the right. But it is the cleanest Alpine A310 I’ve ever seen. It has been sitting for 28 years I think, so it missed the 80's Alpine custom extravaganza

Really? I don’t have a lift. Never have, but I’ve had 40 vehicles and worked on every one. I do have about all the tools, though.

Interesting pairing. And yes, I do like this.

I understand why you are friends with him, haha. Also, a fun PRV party if you bring your 505 V6, just need a Volvo to complete the set.

We were friends before getting those, but we might have influenced each other :)

He describes them as a cruiser (Delorean) and a real sportscar (Alpine)

Haha sounds about right. Not that it reduces my want for one ;) especially one as clean as that, although it’s a shame it hasn’t been driven a little more...

Yeah, but I mean, would it stop you from working on your car if you didn’t? Really?

Rustholes-Are-Weight-Reduction > random001
11/12/2017 at 15:49

No, I would still work on them, but getting a lift would be my priority

for some reason, my pants feel just a little uncomfortable...

I could get that. Definitely one of those cars I don’t want to see often just to stay that kind of special.

Ok, I dig.

I still want an A110, even though the pedal are arranged in a similar manner and the car is even smaller.
Seriously, I sat in one once, as a kind of test fit. I had to angle my head at 30 degrees to fit in. No way I can drive this comfortably enough to have some fun

It’s ok, just go see a doctor if it lasts too long
