Pic of the Week: Alpine Renault on the slide

Xmas POTW comes with more snow than we'll be getting this year

---

It looks unlikely to be much of a white Christmas this year, but a seasonal POTW without snow is like Brussels sprouts without gravy - unpalatable.

Thus we present a snowy, slidey festive pic of the week.

We've (sort of) made it topical, too, since it's a matter of a mere couple of weeks until the Monte Carlo rally (whence this tail-out Alpine comes). And, of course, a Renault reference is topical in light of the 10 model lines the French car maker has just axed form its UK range. Clutching at straws? Us?

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. Fabulously nostalgic shot but where are the Alpines of today Monsieur Renault?

Don't forget the perfidious french disqualified the Monte Carlo Rally winning car one year for illegal spotlights, it was a Mini and after disqualification the winner became- a Citroen. We don't forget you France with your ugly dwarf and bankrupt state and the way you apply rules.
Since Napoleon they seem to be your only comfort-Bah Humbug! Merry Christmas to all Pistonheaders!
