The yellow painted body contrasts with the black hood and roof.

This signature on the left front wing is complemented by an iconic motif on the doors and a white line running along the edge of the bonnet.

On the road, the limited series A110 Tour de Corse 75 takes over from a legendary vehicle on the asphalt of the Corsican track . At its controls, you can relive the exciting history of the 1975 Tour de Corse. Created in 1956, the Tour de Corse is one of the most emblematic events in motor sport, and rallying in particular. In 1967 the competition was integrated into the French Rally Championship and in 1973 it became the key French round of the World Rally Championship. Two years later, 77 teams took to the Corsican asphalt, but only 22 of them reached the finish line, a clear sign of the difficulty of this stage. Due to this, the 1975 edition was the scene of multiple surprises.
While the Alpine A110 and the Lancia Stratos HF fought for victory, everything was decided in the last special: the difference was between 5 and 30 seconds between them before the last stage. It was in the last timed sector where the cars fought the last battle of this Tour de Corse by achieving the same time. The Alpine was left behind by a minimal difference, thirty-two seconds separated him from the highest step of the podium.
