I do believe Airfix once brought out a Reliant Robin.Wow, never seen a kit of a three wheeled truck before. I remember seeing loads of small vans like this the first time I went to Italy. Kudos to miniart for this one. Trouble is they will now release about twenty variations and liveries :worried:

I remember them well. When I was a lad there was a guy had one and used to park in Salisbury market on Saturdays. I showed interest in it one day and he let me have a look around. They were a good design for their day, but were never updated as traffic conditions changed….Common all over the UK... the Invacar!
1948 - 2003, not a bad service, government owned vehicles and spare parts were scrapped due to the motability programme and the obvious safety concerns... :rolling:

P. S. I remember seeing loads of these in Dorchester in the 70s! Must of been a lot of disabled people back then?!
