Seemingly a few heading that way on Saturday.
About 11:30, I was heading westwards past Stonehenge and encountered a blue heading the opposite direction.

I saw about 10 I think in the wild at C&M.

That might be cheating as it clearly was an owners club meet.

I have seen a couple on the road.

I guess there will have been quite a few around the area for the FoS. I saw one when coming out of London on the A316 on Saturday around late morning, Alpine Blue with a Life110 spoiler. Not sure what the nice owner thought, he didn't clock me coming up in lane 3 and only realised when I was alongside for a few seconds wildly grinning like an absolute tool hehe

Looking at it in the mirror is such a great view, they have such an incredibly distinctive face.

That was me, I was in a moment of bliss, of driving a superb car, sun shining and singing away to a great song. so yes it a few moments to realise you was beside meyour car looks stunning, with the sun bouncing of it.
Gold wheels look superb.
(Sadly it’s not my car, but I get to drive lots as I am a tech that works on them, and get a lot of customers that want me to collect and deliver. It’s not always an easy job but some days are well worth it)
I had just put life springs and geometry on this one and was dropping back.
It is a lovely sight seeing these on the road.
Had a few people taking photos as they passed by.

Saw a yellow one on the M4 Friday afternoon heading west past Reading, the front end is very distinctive amongst all the other cars on the road.
Probably me, as I was heading to Pendine Sands thumbup

Hi Essexstu,

Yes that was me, Tim. I live in Sudbury and have had the car, a PE, from new. I don't think I've ever had a better car.
Where are you situated?

Hi Tim, a fellow Alpine owner within 10 miles, nice. I am in Castle Hedingham. Be good to meet up sometime soon for a beer and Alpine chat!

Not first, but about third ever.
White one turning off A1M at Welwyn, last night at about 9.00pm.
Gave toot from my Golf.

Decided to take the Alpine into work on Friday and whilst driving home saw a Matt grey A110 travelling eastbound over the Orwell Crossing, Ipswich.

I don’t believe that for a second- they are too busy discussing resale values to drive them laugh

I spotted my neighbour has a very nice black PE. So now there are two in this small Sussex town,

We must be a lucky lot!

Which 'small Sussex town' would that be?

Ah, the small Sussex town is Selsey, down on the south coast near Chichester. Clearly more Alpines than the average!

Only just noticed this thread. My first spot a few months ago, superb colour in the flesh.

ETA it wasn't parked sideways at the time
