Reliant was far more than a three-wheeler manufacturer. The Tamworth company built economical Robins and Rialtos, lightweight four-wheel cars such as the Kitten and Fox, and the V6 Scimitar grand tourers. These guides cover Reliant’s economy three-wheelers, four-wheel cars and Scimitar sports models most relevant to UK enthusiasts, with clear model histories, specifications and practical ownership checks.
Start here: choose the Reliant Robin for the company’s best-known economy car, or the Scimitar GTE for its distinctive Ford V6 sporting estate.
