I have no words on this matter. Jeremy Clarkson has offered to show you exactly what would happen if you did stick a 'busa engine in one though :lol:

TBH Seb you'll be wasting your money, might as well pass a car test & by any old shitebox car with a bit tax & test just for the winter period...If you still really really want a Reliant you still be able to get one.

I'm preatty sure they don't make em any more as they wont pass current safety or emissions laws, which only means that prices go up. Unfortunately people know this so piles of shite ones are really dear.

Although body is flabbergasts, chassis is steel, made in the heyday of British car manufacturing, which means poor fit & finish & steel that rusts if there is anything more than 10% moisture content in the air...If you thought a Storm was a money pit, go & buy a Robin...
Making up since 2007, sometimes it's true...Honest...
