One of the best looking cars of all times. I live in mexico city and do remember when I was a little boy there were quite a few of the running In the streets. The moment a friend's older brother took me for a ride, changed the way I see cars forever. It is the reason I studied mechanical engineering and the reason I have worked for the automotive industry for the last 20 years
Wow, ive never had that kind of luck, the most rare thing ive seen in CDMX was a bunch of japanese imported cars, never had any luck on any european legends
+allcartuner Depend a lot of where do you live. The Alpine A110 has its proper cult! At the beginning of 90's, you found one for less 10k€ today it is 60k€ at the minimum and more 200k€ for 1800Gr4 racing spec
I was just too young to appreciate this car when I was a kid but I lusted after its successors the A310 and A610, all Alpine's have been sensational looking cars for the day.
Serge Rostucher Since I saw this video 20 minutes ago I've been scouring the internet for more information. She's a very interesting car. How is it that I had never heard of this magnificent beast? :-)
+Tang Stew Avec l'autophobie ambiante en France, je préfère les voir partir vers des contrées davantage aptes à accepter des personnes de bon goût. Quand on voit des Porsche de passionnés ayant economisé longtemps brûler lors des manifestations...
La nouvelle Alpine pourrait peut être relancer l'attrait des français pour les belles voitures. Mais c'est vrai que la France à complètement abandonné le secteurs des sportives. Il n'y a eu que des version sportives de modèles "tous publiques" (mégane RS, clio RS, RCZ R...) et non pas des modèles sportifs plus exclusifs.
Tang Stew Il faut espérer que les gens achèterons beaucoup de ces voitures et les prix en occasion vont baisser par la suite. Il suffit de regarder les prix d'un cayman aujourd'hui. Ce serait génial que la nouvelle Alpine et ses descendantes connaissent le même sort!
Les Dinalpin ont été produites au Mexique il me semble. Elles ne sont donc pas réellement parties, n'ayant jamais posé les roues dans les contrées hexagonales.
Having moved to Bulgaria a couple years ago and seeing now that they produced these things here, I now have a good source for a history project 😂 thank you so much for making the video!
In Asturias, northern Spain, we are lucky that there is a big rally fan community and it's usual to see some of these beautiful machines in car meetings and even racing in historic rallys
One of the iconic cars of the past era. And at the same time, i feel one that is overlooked and that's despite its heritage. Few cars can claim its status, fewer look as pretty, fewer feel as it does. It's not up there with the grands, it's nowhere near the middle. I've always felt this car was in its own class, alone, yet better for it.
Nice car, it was build in Brazil also, licensed by Willys Overland, it was called Interlagos, after the São Paulo, race track.. It was very successful as a racing car at its time.
Sounds so sweet! People have forgotten the joy of driving a very light car that is not over powered. Think MGB, Fiat 850 Spider, Fiat X1/9. I opened them all.
It's still one of my dream cars but I never made it to have one. The closest thing I got was a Simca 1200S which was also a lot of fun to drive. You did a great job and a nice video. Wish you always save journeys.
rene Porsche Unfortunately not. The rust has eaten on it a lot and I gave it away for nearly nothing a long time ago. The 1200 S was made in the time when rust protection was an unknown idea. But it was a nice car which gave me a lot of fun.
Beautiful car,first saw one being driven by Pat Moss Carlsson on the RAC rally early seventies,have always wanted one ! Now have to be contented in watching the at Angouleme in September,usually 20 or so there. The racing around the city walls is spectacular,Porsche ,Alpine ,ERA ,Maserati, Matra ,Bugatti ,MG etc etc !!
Man I keep watching this and one of those cars I could never afford just out of sheer respect for it. One of those cars that I'd have to find one in terrible shape (which here in USA can't find any a110 at all) love seeing the car owners stories with the car that this series promoted rather than just the car.
Very few of these were made. In Mexico, they were built under license by DINA (Diesel Nacional), hence the name Dinalpin, which, in my opinion, sounds even better than plain old Alpine. Everything about this car is special and unfortunately there are fewer and fewer everyday. Congrats to the owner for loving it so much!
Best looking Car Made by Renault, Not by the whole manufacturas of the world. That is in my mind the 240z which i own a 1970 in original 903 blue Paint. Said that as a German Guy Thank you
BEST car guy comment EVER: "I'm not going to let it go. This is a dead man's car. This is going to my grave with me, I'll live in this car if I have to."
At film time 2:34 is a full on example of tricky photo-excellence we get from the cinematographers of Pet Roll A Delicious . My stomach rolls each time I rematch this frame series. My hats and pants off to this film crew, and how the heck did you achieve this shot position .. me clapping !! At film time 6:12 .. my left collar bone was broken thru when riding my road bike (peddle) I dragged by inside peddle at this very point heading downhill,flipping the bike and landing me in Stanford for the night,badly broken. The bike flipped and landing entirely un-scathed ! I was knocked out . This location and the earlier one shown driving thru huge cypress trees are highly secret locations i won't utter the route # of .
This car was produced in Brazil by Willys Overland under license from 1961 to 1966. That engine has 0.998 cc and 70 cv. Here in Brazil the name of this car is Interlagos, in allusion to the Interlagos race circuit in Sao Paulo.
The fog lamps were ment for the rally cars, you can brouse Alpine a110 images, and they help cause the regular lights are not very powerful. Pretty car as you say.
David I hope you realize how fortunate you are to drive an A-110. I have wanted one ever since they started making them. Unfortunately I live in Texas so imagine what it's like to have never even SEEN your favorite car in person for your whole lifetime. I'm 60 now and they are so far out of reach. To smart girls in college wanting to be scientists kills any chance of owning one. $$$ There was a cartel member who had a A-110 built in Mexico. I bid $40K at the auction and someone put a bid in within 5 minutes killing my chance. So we decided to build one and copy the body but I can't find any plans after years of searching. The dream eventually vanished. Too expensive, too rare and little technical info. So enjoy your''s for as long as you can and appreciate it.
I love these, I've never seen him around, I live in Marin. Looks like the parking lot of Legion of Honor, then the road to Stinson Beach, Pt. Reyes. I have an orange 240Z, hope to see you out there up the coast!
I was reading about these cars a few years back and got the impression that licensing one in California would be near impossible. Maybe this was licensed for California in the 60's or 70's
Wonderful video! Some of those shots were just amazing...especially with that beautiful soundtrack coming from the engine. Lovely! There is a shot of a few cartoons of Ragnotti racing. Any idea what these are or where they come from? They looks great!
I really hope he doesn't mean what he's saying and take it to his grave (I know, of course he isn't). Classics like these are heirlooms and should be passed on from one generation to the next, celebrated. preserved and loved.

Nice how one moment in a car can change your life. Save a child! Teach them to drive stick...
A110 has always been one of my favorites! Such an underrated and not well known car.
+allcartuner Depend a lot of where do you live. The Alpine A110 has its proper cult!

I like that he didn’t go with the cliché that he’s a custodian of the car caring for it for next generations of owners.
it's got an awesome little growl when it's started and revved..sounds sooo good
one of the best looking car's I've ever seen
I was just too young to appreciate this car when I was a kid but I lusted after its successors the A310 and A610, all Alpine's have been sensational looking cars for the day.
A very cool car, with an owner that posesses the correct attitude, to live in it if necessary....
A110 is one of my fav cars. Love the Blue ones
+Matt Jenkins (vwgolfer187) : The real Alpine a110 is often "french blue" but the dinalpin is a replica from Mexico !
one of my favorite cars. and im glad a real car guy owns it and not just a car collector
Im glad there are some around the globe, that also keep racing 'em
@@mariasalazar641 I keep mine racing all weeks . I bought it 2435€ ( 2000$ ) in 1974 and now costs 135,000$
My favourite part about the car is probably that I own it, bloody marvellous.
You Sir, have a great taste.
Cool car, cool guy... awesome job on the video as usual.
I laughed at the half-hearted way he said: "It's all part of the fun," when talking about it ending up on the back of a flatbed..
Another car that I never knew existed. Just beautiful.

+NuclearGrizzly : It was the french "Porsche 911" !
Serge Rostucher Since I saw this video 20 minutes ago I've been scouring the internet for more information. She's a very interesting car. How is it that I had never heard of this magnificent beast? :-)
+NuclearGrizzly : It is an old car from the 70' from Alpine Renault , a new one is for 2017 with the same style ! I don't know the dinalpin replica .
CJAE Y This is like the third car I'm seen on this channel that I had never even heard of before. I must be slipping :-)
I'm glad to be french when I see such good looking cars like this Alpine. :)
Pareil ici

Another Fantastic Portrait! Thank you for sharing such interesting, well loved machines and their caretakers. Great choice of roads.
Awesome! The car is perfect for the owner.
Awesome! The owner is perfect for the car ;-)
always loved the lines of these. The sound is incredible
Having moved to Bulgaria a couple years ago and seeing now that they produced these things here, I now have a good source for a history project 😂 thank you so much for making the video!
I love the car and I especially love it's being used the way it is. Thank you david.
I'm 47 and never heard of this car that's why I love this channel I look forward to each posting
I live in this car if i have to!! Priceless
Sublime. Makes up for the other A110 video
In Asturias, northern Spain, we are lucky that there is a big rally fan community and it's usual to see some of these beautiful machines in car meetings and even racing in historic rallys
Thank you for those 30 seconds of pure sound
I've always found the A110 a stunning car, but god, this car is so amazing in red!
One of my all time favorite cars.
One of the iconic cars of the past era. And at the same time, i feel one that is overlooked and that's despite its heritage. Few cars can claim its status, fewer look as pretty, fewer feel as it does. It's not up there with the grands, it's nowhere near the middle.

Love the look of this car. Well worn and used but still in great shape. Exactly how a car should be.
Great video and great owner. Webers with a Devil just sound sooo good.
Wish I still had my 1300 R8 Gordini
Wunderschöne Aufnahmen und Eindrücke. Vielen Dank !
love when i wake up and theres a new petrolicious video to watch
yes beautiful videos by Petrolicious just makes my day.
Love the engine sound its GORGEOUS and ANGRY
Great showcase of the beauty of Northern California as always. I'd never seen this type of car before. Thanks for putting it in the spotlight!
Love these, strikingly tiny pretty little cars like its British cousin the Ginetta G15.
The first time I ever saw one of these my mouth hit the ground it’s been there every since. I was twelve at the time I’m 51 now.
Can't wait for a A310 feature
Pure passion....! I never knew they made them in Mexico and Spain ,either......great news!
Best video for ages - return to form
Nice car, it was build in Brazil also, licensed by Willys Overland, it was called Interlagos, after the São Paulo, race track.. It was very successful as a racing car at its time.
"I live in this car if I have to!" -- what a car!
Breath taking pictures for an iconic car ! Great ! 👍♥️🙂
Nice ride, good story, great video.
Alpine was 2 times rally world Champion in the 70's
Sounds so sweet! People have forgotten the joy of driving a very light car that is not over powered. Think MGB, Fiat 850 Spider, Fiat X1/9. I opened them all.
Hi Dave, great to hear your voice again and glad you still got your Gloucestershire accent x
Great video, and I like the owners attitude. As I always say, cars come into my life, but they never leave!
I love it.. never seen one .thank you for sharing this amazing car
my god, those alpines a110 sure are magnificent!
Such a pretty little car.
One always appears at an annual local (to me) motorshow and always has people around it wondering what it is.
Superb!
Love that "Speed Racer" Mach 5 sound!!
sympathique petite Gordini,merci pour ce post
Soooooooo much want!
Northern Cali I knew it! Great Job Petrolicious!! Beautiful Car!
Never heard of the car but WOW! Some draw dropping scenes and that noise!
It's still one of my dream cars but I never made it to have one. The closest thing I got was a Simca 1200S which was also a lot of fun to drive.
You did a great job and a nice video. Wish you always save journeys.
do you still have your Simca ?
Petrolicious should make a video with a simca 1000 rally
rene Porsche
Unfortunately not. The rust has eaten on it a lot and I gave it away for nearly nothing a long time ago. The 1200 S was made in the time when rust protection was an unknown idea. But it was a nice car which gave me a lot of fun.
sorry
:_(
Really is gorgeous!
Beautiful car,first saw one being driven by Pat Moss Carlsson on the RAC rally early seventies,have always wanted one ! Now have to be contented in watching the at Angouleme in September,usually 20 or so there. The racing around the city walls is spectacular,Porsche ,Alpine ,ERA ,Maserati, Matra ,Bugatti ,MG etc etc !!
I'll be there as well , can't wait!
Beautiful car!
Gorgeous car and another amazing video!
pretty car. I really like the wheels. Well done.
Man I keep watching this and one of those cars I could never afford just out of sheer respect for it. One of those cars that I'd have to find one in terrible shape (which here in USA can't find any a110 at all) love seeing the car owners stories with the car that this series promoted rather than just the car.
again.... awesome.....
Only seen these with the double headlights. These single headlights make it look much better in my opinion. Great car.
Easily best channel on youtube
Very few of these were made. In Mexico, they were built under license by DINA (Diesel Nacional), hence the name Dinalpin, which, in my opinion, sounds even better than plain old Alpine.
Everything about this car is special and unfortunately there are fewer and fewer everyday. Congrats to the owner for loving it so much!
One of the most beautiful cars ever made by Renault.😍😍😍
Great interview/expose, & great car.
he truly loves his car
Gorgeous car indeed. You're a man of taste!
Its beautiful

That is in my mind the 240z which i own a 1970 in original 903 blue Paint.

Beautiful car beautifully shot film.
Did anyone else expect him to drive into a tunnel and encounter a bulldozer though?
I admit i never heard of alpin. Its a beauty!
+Timus Me neither! very pretty, apart from those fog lamps!
The fog lamps were ment for the rally cars, you can brouse Alpine a110 images, and they help cause the regular lights are not very powerful. Pretty car as you say.
Gorgeous "natural" sound not like the artificial noise of today's cars ! beautiful movie indeed
just fantastic !!
Just stunning footage. Great video.
Beautiful. Now to go play GT6 with a 110.
lol right! is not bad on gt6 😊
+01FozzyS This car is one of the most fun to drive in GT6.
+satellite964
True but GT6 is kind of dead now.
dylan snow I'm sure GT Sport will have the 110
+dylan snow we need so much a gt7 dont know what they are waiting 😡 but anyways on the 6 there still a lot of people online!
Fantastic video, and fantastic car!

Lovely Vid, great footage, Cool car and set up with the engine - sounds was about perfect for it. Thanks a lot ;D
I WISH ! One day I would love to rent this and drive about on the Route Napoleon...
Sweet car, I would live in it too...
First time I knew of Alpine was in Gran Turismo :)
Great video
Ditto, boss.
I won't mind having an Alpine as a home, or hell as a coffin too if I own one.
I've fallen in love with Alpines all over again...
I've been like that for few months...
Che macchina........ impareggiabile
This car reminded me of the Alfa Sprint Speciale.
I love these, I've never seen him around, I live in Marin. Looks like the parking lot of Legion of Honor, then the road to Stinson Beach, Pt. Reyes. I have an orange 240Z, hope to see you out there up the coast!
Part of it was definitely Stage Rd in Pescadero area (south of you) - but you may be right as well on other shots.
That sounds really nice. Better than my preconceived notions
I was reading about these cars a few years back and got the impression that licensing one in California would be near impossible. Maybe this was licensed for California in the 60's or 70's
amazing footage... as usual
Looks like a fun little car.
