excuse the pics as there 14 years old, but only just been reading about this car, i think it brillaint

they built this at the start of this year, which i put pics up of



"Car ..................Reliant Kitten DL saloon. (The Kitten is the factory 4 wheel version of the 3 wheel Robin). Body is fibreglass.

Engine .............3528cc Rover V8 from a SD1, ARP big end bolts, ARP main stud kit (replacing stock bolts), reground crank, align honed mains, Crane cam and lifters, Cloyes timing chain, K+N bronze valve guides machined to take Crane teflon seals, double valve springs, 3 angle valve seats, home ported heads, heads skimmed.

Performance ....With stock scrap yard engine 12.81 sec quarter mile. With new engine 0-100 mph 10 secs. No accurate quarter mile times available. ( I ran 13.41 secs with the new engine but the track was very poor and I was getting a lot of wheel spin in 1st and 2nd gear. On a good road surface I struggle to get ANY wheel spin.) Top speed 130 mph @ 6500rpm!
