I can't call this a garage find as I have known it was there all the time, but I have too many toys and I need to realise that I don't have the time for them all. So I have dug it out of its cover, taken some pictures and it is now up for sale.
F911MRO is a 1989 Reliant Scimitar 1800Ti SS1 in blue with a roll bar, soft top and hard top included. I also have the original wheels though they need a refurb.
I bought the car in England in 2010, drove it home and drove it for a year before acquiring a MX5 and the SS1 was then left in the garage. With good intentions of putting it back onto the road again each year, but you know how it is, something always distracted me.
The car was last MOT'd in 2010 and when it ran out in June 2011 I SORN'd it and there it has remained.
I have not started it recently, I robbed the battery some years ago, but it should need a check and turned over on the starter to get the oil up and around her before firing up.
This is a single wiper model with a galvanised chassis. The bodywork is blown plastic and is in good condition. It has had the seats recovered in leather, but the interior mirror has fallen off the screen whilst in storage.
Brakes and clutch were good, but the tyres will need replaced.
