Alpine A310

The Alpine A310 is a sports car built by French manufacturer Alpine from 1971 to 1984. It was the last Alpine model conceived by founder Jean Rédélé.
Dieppe-based Alpine, was an independent company founded in 1955, that specialised in competition cars and sporting road cars employing largely Renault components. They established a fine competition history with the Alpine A110 winning the 1973 Monte Carlo Rally and World Rally Championship. The A110 was recognised as being too focused to sell in volume as a grand tourer. Rédélé sought a second model with wider appeal that could compete with the Porsche 911. Although Gordini and Renault were working on V8 and V6 engines the Alpine A310, was initially powered by a rear mounted tuned 17TS/Gordini four-cylinder engine. The maximum power was 127 PS , thanks to the use of two twin-barrel 45 DCOE Weber carburetors....
