I have the modern incarnation, but this classic is what drew me to them in the first place. Stunning and great film to boot.

Awesome car – I’ve lusted after these since seeing them in the pages of MotorSport magazine in the 70s, but never appreciated quite how small they are. Beautiful film…

Thanks, really well shot and presented, currently reading the book about Giovanni Michelotti (a free stylist), perfect timing for this vid.

All smiles throughout that drive. A purity of driving that will never come back.

Unfortunately, these special automobiles are rarely seen in the U.S.A.

Sam, to help put the size of the A110 in a better perspective, would you tell us your height?

Sure thing Mike, I’m 6’2”… it was quite a squeeze!

Enjoyed that. Shame that the last few sentences might not age well if the rumours that Renault are going to close the Dieppe factory and with it the new A110 are true 🙁
