Currently on SORN, used competively last year and kept in road going trim - owner getting too old!

Great fun car and reliable (nissan engine).
Spare engine and gearbox taken from a competition car(another SS1) with upgrades (unknown besides large turbo), in working order when removed from car.
This car is one with a galvanized chassis which is in excellent order, bodywork still looking good after 35 years - did have a quality re-spray 20 years ago. I purchased this car 16 years ago from a Reliant Owners Club member, originally just as a fun driver but then set up for competition. Excellent handling vehicle with reliable upgrades that has been used on the road.
