Evenin all
Some of you may remember I mentioned that me and my mates have bought a new car to have a play with on Thursday night, well here it is!!! Piss funny when this thing goes sideways!!! 
£30, one owner, 30,000 miles, 850cc's of power!


And one of the 06 GSXR750 for good measure

to be fair thats a fairly good buy IMO - surely worth more than £30 with only 30k on the clock?

Do you find it hard to drive Stu?
Bit like driving a canoe, in my experience, with your feet at the same height as your arse

Yeah, its harder to drive than the Tuscan - Or do you ride it? Haha!!
RWD, I tell you, the guy who designed the Reliant must have been dabbling with LSD. Would love to go out for a beer with him and share his drugs!!! 
Will get plenty of pics and vids guys, no worries!!!!

Reliant was founded in 1935 by T L Williams.

Imagine that with the bike engine in it, haha!
Shame the bike is virtually brand new (200 miles old) or I reckon we might have considered it!!!
We have got 2 XE's knocking round at the mo that are being rebuilt (one destined for the Caterham on R1 carbs and the other destined for the shed of a Nova that you can just about see at the back of the first pic) Reckon one of them would light the rears up!!!
May even make it 3 wheel drive?

What power are the standard 850 engines? Can't be that hard to drop a cheap-ish powerful bike engine in it surely? Something like a 400 could be picked up cheap i'd have thought 
Oh and £30 is a bargain, they still fetch good money cause there loved by coffin dodgers
