    New wheels again

    I have just been given the opportunity to own one the last 40 BN1 Robins not to be confused with the reliant robin It might look like a reliant mk3 but it was made by bn plastics only 40 made maybe even less but being registered in 2002 so of course I snapped it up.

        That puts you in a very exclusive club Peter. If bn plastics want to injection mould a few in 1/24 or 1/12, I'd have one!

          A very rare beastie indeed. I never imagined they were still being made in 2002.

              Interesting, I didn't know the BN1 existed. What's the engine?

                They were produced up until October 2002 bn plastics put them together but reliant supplied the parts so it's a reliant 850 cc
