RELIANT ROBIN SLX “65 GOLD”
THIS RELIANT ROBIN SURELY REPRESENTS THE END OF A MOTORING ERA. TO CELEBRATE THE CLOSURE OF THE 3 WHEELER PRODUCTION AND THE 65 YEARS OF DOING SO RELIANT MOTOR COMPANY BUILT THE LAST ROBINS AS LIMITED EDITION MODELS. THIS CAR IS BUILD NUMBER 5 OF JUST 65  ALL CARS WERE DELIVERED WITH A COMMEMORATIVE PLAQUE INSCRIBED WITH THE OWNERS NAME AND THE PRODUCTION RUN NUMBER.

ABOUT THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND THE HISTORY OF THIS ROBIN. THE BUYER OF THIS CAR HAD BEEN A REGULAR CLIENT OF BROOK ROAD GARAGE IN REDHILL SURREY AND PURCHASED IT FROM THEM NEW. 
HE WAS A SELF EMPLOYED ELECTRICIAN, A BACHELOR AND ONLY EVER HAD A MOTORCYCLE LICENCE. HE ONLY EVER DROVE RELIANTS, AND THEY ALL SERVED HIM WELL. FOR HIS WORK OVER MANY YEARS HE HAD A SUCCESSION OF RELIANT VANS AND LEISURE TIME WAS SPENT IN THE CAR EQUIVALENT. HE BOUGHT NEW ONES EVERY TWO YEARS. HE PURCHASED THIS CAR AS HIS LAST ONE FOR HIS RETIREMENT AT THE AGE OF 65 IN 2001 AT A COST OF £10000.
I BOUGHT THIS ROBIN FROM HIM IN FEBRUARY 2018 AND HAVE ENJOYED SHOWING IT AT CLASIC CAR SHOWS. THE INCREDIBLY LOW MILEAGE OF JUST 7700 MILES IS CORRECT. IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THIS IS THE LATEST ROBIN REGISTERED IN THE UK, AS THE LAST CAR BUILT, WHICH WAS GIVEN AWAY AS A PRIZE IN THE SUN NEWSPAPER WAS REGISTERED 13/2/01. THIS CAR WAS REGISTERED 01/04/2001 AND I AM ONLY THE SECOND OWNER. THE VEHICLE IS IN ORIGINAL CONDITION AND HAS NOT HAD ANY RESTORATIVE WORK CARRIED OUT.
