apparently story goes that some of the "breathed on" RS 3.1 capri engines were delivered to reliant by mistake in 1972/3, some lucky scimitar owners then

I never said anything was wrong with fibre glass. Infact, I owned a Reliant Scimitar SS1 for 10 years & it was a great car. I'd still have it now if Emily hadn't come along.

i live about 1 1/2 miles from where the reliant factory used to be, its now a housing estate, as for the RS200, the bodies were made at another site in lichfield, looked good but never a serious contender in the group B rallies, altho' competitive in rallycross with massive horsepower
