Just been looking at the DVLAs website about "Registering Rebuilt, Radically Altered Vehicles and Kit Cars" and they call Reliant Robins, Robin Reliants! don't the DVLA know how to name cars?
Maybe I need to spend less time looking at the internet and spend more time working on my Imp Hillman!!

That annoys me too - oyu'd think that the DVLA would know better wouldn't you?! My dad used to have one until the laws of physics took over on a roundabout one day!!

The DVLA are a funny lot. I've written to them before about registering motors that haven't seen the road in a few years, and they were as awkward as possible. I done what they asked, and sent what they wanted, and they wouldn't even consider giving it any plate, even a 'Q' plate. They probably call them Robin Reliants to be awkward and annoy Reliant owners!!

Blame the public, or rather the media. Everyone refers to these cars as Robin Reliants don't they? I posted this piccy up in another thread but I'd thought I'd put it here too! Rialto Reliant ;D

I know what you mean...I'm also upset by people who refer to all vacuum cleaners as Hoovers and the act of vacuuming as Hoovering...tut tut. Anyway I'm off to Cressida Toyota to the shops.
