Good morning folks,

Currently I am speccing an A110 and somehow the most difficult choice I run into is the colour. I like the lighter metallics (see picture) which give the car a classic look that suits it very well, especially the beige sable seems to look really nice. I have not seen a good photo of this colour on a real car yet though, which makes it hard to decide. Does anyone over here own an A110 in this colour or happen to have any pictures of it?

Thanks!
Bram

Afraid I don't, but your question has sent me down a rabbit hole regarding Atelier colours* - and it took me a while to figure that Beige Sable is 'Dune' on the UK configurator.

I think you can't go wrong with any of those - which is the middle sample?

[*Down to 20 available now, Gris Montebello and Orange Sanguine no longer selectable. Niche interest but may start a thread...]

Have you had a look through the "new colours" thread on the French forum?

To find this, Google "FAR 4.0" then you want the AlpineA110NG section (NG = next generation) & if you've selected "translate to English" the thread is called "new colours". There are about 70 pages to look through.

I'm really curious now as to how many cars have actually been built in each of the Atelier colours - and are there any colours that no-one has yet chosen?

I like the look of Normandy Green

Ahh thanks. I thought I had gone through that entire thread, but still I somehow managed to miss the two pictures of that beige car in Germany. It is an interesting colour that seems to turn to a more silver tone on the showroom pics and more golden under the sun. Now I only have to decide if it is worth a seven month wait, or if I should go for that Gris Montebello GT that is already on its way to the dealership near me.

All my friends keep telling me that an Alpine should be blue. I have to prove them otherwise.

I could never have guessed that the UK configurator uses different names for the colours. On the Atelier website in English, they use the name 'Beige Sable' instead. The middle one is called 'Vert Cendre' in French (that will probably translate to 'Ash green').
