Well done. This’ll boost their second hand values.

It s been one Ive been meaning to watch

Really wish I d done stuff like that when younger

Will make an for a lifetime of stories and memories

Edit to add, I keep telling my wife I’d like to travel Europe on a mobility scooter if I can retire early. Would be a great way to see it whilst camping / air b&b as you go

There's plenty of Strip roads in southern Africa, not much fun at the best of times but definitely troublesome in a 3-wheeler!

Well done them.

I've actually got a soft spot for reliants as my great uncle used to have a pale blue rialto and we had some great family trips out with him and my nan when i was a nipper.

I've even contemplated buying one to reminisce but then i wake up and realise its a terrible idea!

Although if i did get one it would be named Roland the reliant in homage to uncle Roly!
