1989 Reliant Scimitar SS1 review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cam belt broke. My own fault for not replacing it when I bought the car at 40,000 miles.
General comments?
What a great car! Costs peanuts to run (including laughably cheap insurance - 120 pounds a year).
