RELIANT SCIMITAR GTE 3.1RS for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.15) based on 598 votes
1970 Reliant Scimitar 3. 0 litre v6. Excellent condition externally. internally & mechanically. Used almost daily. so not concourse condition but would not take a lot to bring it up to such. Incredibly reliable. fast & a real head turner. The bodywork is in fantastic condition. no creases or flaking/faded paint. Likewise for the chrome. A couple of driving chips in the paint but that is all. Overdrive & gearbox were overhauled in 2009 & both work smoothly. Lots of other work done by my deceased petrol head father. it was his pride & joy. Front seats are not the original. they are black velour recaro style & are in keeping with the interior whilst not breaking your back on a long hall as the originals would. Webber carburettors with alloy air filter cover. All electrics sound. MOT until November. I genuinely believe this is the best Scimitar both mechanically & condition wise that is a useable car & not just a show car. If showing cars is your thing then this one would not take a lot to get it up to winning standard. There would be nothing expensive to do to on either the running gear or the body. I must emphasise the point regarding the running gear. any mechanics needed would be purely cosmetic. i. e. to repaint the rocker covers. new shiny jubilee clips on the hoses. repaint the battery housing clips etc. The body work is in excellent condition only one or two very small driving chips. Without doing a thing to it. it is a real head turner and utterly reliable. A reluctant but necessary sale as I now have a company car and do not have the space for the Simmy sadly. I am listing this Simmy on behalf of my brother in law (who has written the description himself but has no time for viewings). I can be contact for any questions/viewings on 07828 871542 (Tim).

To clarify this is a 3 litre Scimmy not 3. 1 as in the heading. sorry for the mistake.  

On 18-Jul-13 at 08:55:51 BST. seller added the following information:

I have tried unsuccessfully to add more photos to the listing to include the engine and sun/roof panel (interior and exterior).  I am guessing that once there are bids you can't delete some photos to replace them with others and twelve photos is the max. Photos of the engine and any other aspect of the Simmy you want photographed are available. please just send a message and I will send you the additional photographs you need. Tim
