2018 Alpine A110 Premiere Edition Auto

CarHunch analysed 132 real MOT records for the 2018 Alpine A110 Premiere Edition Auto. This breakdown of actual test outcomes — pass rates, defect profiles, mileage data — isn't published anywhere else.

The 2018 Alpine A110 Première Edition Auto proves more reliable than the UK average, with an 85.8% first-time pass rate compared to 80% nationally, and only 8.3% of vehicles ever flagged for dangerous defects—a reassuringly low figure. This is a genuinely well-screwed-together car for its age and price point.

At just over 12,000 miles median mileage, these cars have been pampered rather than thrashed, which partly explains the strong reliability picture. With an average of 0.38 failures and 1.4 advisories per test, owners should expect minor wear items but nothing systemic—however, before committing to purchase, request the full MOT history to confirm that low advisory count is consistent across years, as a pristine example now might hide neglect later.

What to check before buying a 2018 Alpine A110 Premiere Edition Auto

Practical pre-purchase checks for this age and model.

  • 📋 Check the full MOT history. Look for recurring advisories — slow-building issues like corrosion or brake wear patterns show up years before they become failures. Enter the reg below for a full AI analysis.
  • 🔍 Inspect for corrosion in person. Brake pipes, sills, subframes, and chassis legs. Surface rust is normal at this age; structural rust is a serious problem that's expensive to fix and can fail an MOT.
  • 🛞 Check tyres and brakes. The most common advisory items at this age. Budget for replacement if they're near the limit — factor this into your offer price.
  • 📄 Run an HPI check. The MOT history won't show outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen status — an HPI check will.
