Costs & verdict
Everyday costs, plus how reliable and safe it is
The entry-level Alpine A110 trim is the one to go for – this sports coupé is more about the driving experience than the fripperies. It comes with part-suede and part-leather-trimmed seats, cruise control and climate control, and can be identified by the 17in alloy wheels and grey brake calipers.
A sports exhaust, 18in wheels and upgraded brakes are available from the options list. It's not cheap, but it is priced pretty close to the entry-level Porsche Cayman and is predicted to have even better resale values.
