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

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...!
