1980 Alpine-Renault A310 2.7L V6 true European version, legal in US with title

 

Looking for a good home of my long owned ALPINE-Renault  A310 V6.   I truly love this car. I just don't have enough time to enjoy it. I am more in classic motorcycles now than in cars.   If I can't at least ride/drive a vehicle 2000 miles a year I "have to" sell it; that's my law. So. unfortunately the Alpine is on the list.

I have had seven (7!) Alpine A310's in my life so far and this is No. 5 that I kept. because it is the best reliable and driving car I owned.   But. it is not a "Show Car". and it was never intended to be. I owned this Alpine for 21 years. All works. turn the key and drive it.   It is presently the only Alpine A310 in North Carolina. and one out of about 30 in the entire US.   It's the last first and last body-shape of the "first series" Alpine V6's that was built from 1976 to 1980. and it has (originally) the later 5-speed manual transmission. NO electronics! (. except the time-correct radio) Simple. pure mechanical technology.   Easy to work on. parts easy to get (I have needed three parts over 21 years. and the cost me all together about $200. 00). I think it says 85. 00 km on the odometer. but that's relative. Engine and transmission were rebuilt in the early 90's. and I have put about 40. 00 miles on it since then. so I list it as "100. 00" miles. This is not a verfied mileage. and there is no such thing as a CarFax. It was originally sold in Switzerland and has a short European VIN number.

The car is reasonably priced. and the final price will depend on all the accessories and parts you want with it.   Right now I am sellign it with two set of wheels and tires. the original Alpine Factory Option Gotti 15" wheels of the 70's/80's. and the special fitted 17" six-double spoke Enkei style wheels. that allow wider and lower profile tires for a more up-dated grip.   There is a fiberglass damage on the left front fender from a "kiss" of a guardrail on the German Nuerburgring in Germany. All works. the car has e. g also an upgraded radiator and a ported cylinder head and is in top mechanical condition. Turn the key and driiive anywhere.

I could continue to tell a long story. post a lot of pictures (which I have to send out). but I'd rather talk first personally with a seriousley interested buyer.   If you are such an individual pick up the phone. call or text me; best is to set up a time for a good conversation (704-965-9592).   Eric
