My only problem with this would be the the name; Reliant, as in Reliant Robin! ::) ::) ::) ::)

Sorry, but I always have images of three wheelers that we all joked about in my youth! :D :D ;)


Ah, but do you know why it was a Robin?

Because when real vehicles hit one the fibre-glass bits used to fly everywhere!! ;D ;D ;D :D


Lol....it has a Robin engine in it.....Robin is/was an independent engine manufacturer....now owned by Subaru!

Not sure why you removed all the electrics before pulling the 3.0 out as you only need to disconnect a multiplug, 0V lead, a few relay bases and the whole lot lifts out.

Move the main multiplug over from the Omega and the re-wire is easy to.

It does fit nice  :y

I did stumble upon this realisation after removing the engine, though in my defence the whole lot was covered in old police loom cable tried on the outside of it all.

I'm well chuffed with the fit, I've sat it a couple inches lower in the chassis and 3 inches further back to really help with weight distribution and handling.


I never new Subaru got involved with the reliant. I want a WRX Robin now.   ;D ;D ;D
