The Alpine A110 beat the Porsche Cayman as What Car's favourite sports car of 2019. Is it possible for its successor, the A110 S, to improve upon perfection? What Car's John Howell thinks it is. Stiffer anti-roll bars and springs combined with wider tyres results in a machine that's sharper and allows for greater control. "The S grips harder and leans less than the standard A110, so you can carry more speed through turns and get it to change direction quicker."
