Years ago (1992?) there was a short thread on this car along with other
Alpine movies. I am pretty sure I recall that in the conversation it was
added that the car was in fact provided by a local Rootes dealer (the
country was identified, I can't recall which one) and that country's
dealers would only have received low compression Alpines. I do not have my
books at work to tell you what that would add to the VIN Rex describes
above.
