Ah :idea: Something with 'Reliant' in it was my intention, thanks for the correction.
But look what they did with this iconic "car".. :shock: :D

I like some HW there's a nice escort they do at the moment and some of the American muscle cars and trucks are also good as are the Japanese based modes
But I must agree the abominations like the Regal (which is a van version of the Reliant) are dire and should be melted down ;)

Of course they have some nice and realistic items, too. They also had some great castings in the 80's!

Do we assume there is actually a real version of the model somewhere, because I doubt their 'R & D' would be aware of the humble Reliant, go to a book and create drawings for a model...!
