Description
Description The speedometer currently displays 53,656 miles, although this mileage cannot be verified; running and driving while on site; workshop manuals accompany the sale
First registered in August 1970, this distinctive Reliant Scimitar GTE is powered by a 2,994cc six-cylinder engine coupled to a manual transmission.
Finished in Red, the car was originally Green before being repainted in August 1985.
It has had six former keepers, with the current owner acquiring the car in 2023.
The speedometer currently displays 53,656 miles, although this mileage cannot be verified.
Accompanying the car are a selection of manuals and invoices documenting some of the work carried out over the years.
While with us for photography and a short video, the Scimitar started, drove and stopped as expected.
Please note that the paintwork is showing some blistering to the bonnet, as can be seen in the accompanying photographs.
This is an honest and straightforward example that retains plenty of it...
