the phase one 172 is a bargain, £1500 gets a hgh miler, 2-2.5k gets a minter, you cant get much more fun for the money.
Mark, bet the R26R is just awesome, would love one of them.
Agree with what you say about them being one of your faveourite marques, i do have a bit of an obsession with the sport models. Alpine A110, such a unique looking car, saw one at a car show last year, will dig some pics out tomorrow, the are so low, the roof doesn't come up to my waist.
