1987 Plymouth Reliant LE review from North America
"Very luxurious and classic car. It's name says it all!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. Just routine maintenance since it was new.
General comments?
I bought this Reliant in late 1986. It s a 4 door sedan that is a red metallic color with a tan fake convertible top & red interior. This car has a lot of nice features on it like power windows, seat, locks, map lights, AM/FM cassette stereo, cruise control, tilt wheel, painted pinstripes (Tan in color), and wire wheel covers. There is also a luggage carrier on the trunk. This car has many features that most reliants of the era didn't. It is very luxurious and has a nice ride, it even looks like a much more expensive car than it is. Still runs like a top, and gets great gas mileage. I will keep this one until it drops. There is nothing new out there that is built as well as this car was. New cars just fall apart, and don't hold up like these beasts did. My only gripe is that this car doesn't have the greatest pickup, other than that, this is a high quality well built, extremely luxurious, great classic cruiser.
