Nicely done in 1:18 scale by Ottomobile this is
the Alpine A110 GR5 Rallye Cross. This is a high-quality sealed body resin cast
model. Extremely limited edition of 999 pieces.
The Alpine A110 is more than a sports car; it is very simply
a legend. Imagined by Jean Rédélé with pieces borrowed from Renault cars, it
would become a huge success on the roads and in competition. It became a world
champion of rallies as soon as 1973 and had nothing more to prove after that.
During its last year of production, it was entered in Rallycross and entrusted
to the young driver Piet Kruythof. He was a young Dutchman whose father was a
Renault dealer. Driven by the latter and hired by the Vialle Autogas team, he
was gifted with great results in the national rallycross championship.
