Funny you should ask, because I just saw a really nice Reliant yesterday. In fact, I see different Reliants almost every day. You must be one of those picky people who will never be satisfied with any car, and will always find something to whine about. Cars of the '70s were mostly all bad? My '71 Barracuda was great, as was my '71 Charger, '73 Charger, '75 Charger, '76 Volare, '79 Volare, '80 Volare (oops, sorry, that's an '80s car). Our '84 Reliant was also a good car, as was our '85 Dodge and '89 Chevy. Lest anyone thinks that I'm remembering these old, "mostly bad" cars through rose-colored glasses, I still have the '71 Barracuda, '73 Charger, '75 Charger, and '85 Dodge and they are STILL good cars. I honestly hadn't driven anything nicer until 2005. Up until then, cars of the 1970's were better than cars of the 1980's and 1990's.
