YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE
In loving memory of Dr. Peter Bradbury.
Embark on a heartfelt journey with "You Only Live Once", a moving short film that uncovers a cherished bond between a father and daughter, united by their shared love for French automotive engineering and Renault Alpine. In this case a 1973 Alpine A110 v85 1300. This isn't just a story about a car; it's a tribute to the importance of family, memories, and legacy.
Listen to tender recollections of school runs that were more than just a commute; they were moments of joy, a symphony of engine roars, and the scent of adrenaline.
In a twist of fate, after the loss of the narrator's father, an Alpine A110 surfaces at an auction, presenting an opportunity to rekindle those treasured memories. It's a poignant reminder of the film's message: seize the moment because "You Only Live Once".
This film is a testament to the Alpine A110's enduring allure, a car that's more than a collection of metal and parts, but a feeling that transcends time. It's a nostalgic ride that's sure to resonate with car aficionados and story lovers alike. Join us for an unforgettable drive down memory lane, where every turn is a story and every drive feels like coming home.

EMBRACE THE FLAWS
"What does it mean? What does it say about us?
Really, it's nothing short of the only viable consequence.
A whole is the sum of its parts. And then some.
So as I sit in front of each and every, last and viable, essential piece
I give my very best, my all. Every step deserves the utmost attention.
And when it is all set and done, when the pursuit of perfection has ended,
there is only one thing left to do.
Embrace the flaws."

You Don't Drive An Alpine A110, You Wear It
We've been lucky over the years to have had the chance to not only see a few Alpine A110s in the metal, but to actually drive them. As an office we've had this saying for a while that "you don't really drive an A110, you wear it." It's somewhat of a running joke that has been tough to describe to outsiders. Any time the marque or model was mentioned, that phrase would come out and we'd all chuckle. That was until we decided to make a short film, the latest in our "Morning Coffee" series about what that experience is like.
The cockpit is so intimate, so snug, so perfectly purpose built that it's akin to applying a wetsuit to yourself to go surfing. There's a certain ritual to the way you have to prepare to get in the car, to turn the key in the ignition, the whole thing is just so personal.
This one is owned by our friend Jürgen Clauss, the man behind AlpineLab: “Sometimes, when stepping into my garage, and looking at my cars, I am surprised that it is already 30 years and the Alpine hasn’t worn out yet,” he explains from his German workshop that specializes in these small French sports cars. “I still like to look, drive, and work on these cars every day,” he says, “To me, it was always unique, always something special; you even had to have certain ergonomic prerequisites to drive an Alpine.”

1. Int. ALPINE Meeting Wroclaw / Poland 2018
https://motoclassicwroclaw.pl/
Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este / Villa Erba
20-22 May 2016
BACK TO THE FUTURE - THE JOURNEY CONTINUES
Every year in May, the hautevolèe of the international automotive scene meet at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on the shores of Lake Como.
In the "Heroes of the Special Stage" category, former rally cars were also taken into account for the first time at the rendezvous of high-quality classic automobiles.
We spared no expense and effort and ranked our Berlinette, among the most beautiful and elegant automobile classics in the world.
In the "Concept Cars" category, ALPINE caused a sensation with its extremely successful "Alpine Vision" Coupè. A meeting of both vehicles for a photo shoot was the logical consequence on the sidelines of this prestigious event.

One Man’s Alpine Awakening
What would it take for you to follow a dream?
Impossibly small, light, fast, and loud, Alpine sports cars have excelled at just about every form of motorsport they were entered in, but especially rally, and hillclimb competition. The cars are unlike anything else—and are just the thing to inspire a man to restore them…many of them.
“Sometimes, when stepping into my garage, and looking at my cars, I am surprised that it is already 30 years and the Alpine hasn’t worn out yet,” says Jürgen Clauss, founder of alpineLAB, a German shop that specializes in these small French sports cars.
“I still like to look, drive, and work on these cars every day,” he says, “To me, it was always unique, always something special; you even had to have certain ergonomic prerequisites to drive an Alpine.”
Dedicated to getting the details right during preservation and restoration, Clauss says that he sees something special in each component of classic cars, but especially an Alpine. “To me, each and every part is a sculpture on its own,” he says. “You just have to open your eyes and see the beauty of those parts (and) to be passionate about this hobby, even without a finished car.”
What started as a hobby and collection based around street versions of the Renault-powered Alpine A110, Clauss now focuses on the race cars. It’s been a long, 3-year relationship with the marque, which invariably led to him being somewhat poetic when explaining his passion.
“Owning an Alpine is quite like a relationship with a beautiful woman: Somedays, it’s exhausting, but in the end, it’s all about maintaining the passion, highlighting her beauty, and loving her.”
We couldn’t agree more. You can visit Jürgen’s website at alpinelab.de (http://www.alpinelab.de)

Circuit des Remparts 2014
Following the traces of Juan Manuel Fangio and Michel Vaillant
It is afternoon. It is race time. We are told that about 30,000 people flock the streets of Angoulême. We are ready and confident. Our Berlinette runs fantastic; the engine is smooth, responsive and has enough torque to be competitive. With a good start we should be able to gain a few positions to compensate for our mid field grid position.
We are not taking our eyes away from the person with the French banner who is supposed to start the race. But it all happens surprisingly quickly: the flag suddenly goes up and here they go … let the Alpines are let loose.

Eric Comas Racing Team 2003
In 2003 a new chapter in my life was started. My son Fabian was born and Eric Comas founded his legendary "Alpine Racing Team".
I got very much inspired by this impressions Eric has recorded from the Rallye Monte Carlo Historic 2003. I remember watching this clip with my little son almost every day. It gave me my daily dosis of alpine madness and was fueling my passion to the max.
