Day 8 brings the Renault Alpine A310 #139 which had to abandon the 1981 Dakar. This version of the Alpine A310 was the next version of the Alpine based on the original A110, and was a popular sports car in the early 1980s in Europe.
In the early years of the Dakar, many teams competed in standard road going cars, maybe some suspension upgrades or a roll cage, but for the most part, they pretty much looked like their siblings on the dealers' lot. Not surprisingly a lot of the teams had to drop out as their cars would either break down or be damaged beyond repair, and some even going up in flames.
Hopefully nothing untoward will happen to your version, either easy or complex.
