Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1993 Reliant Scimitar Sabre is a rare, low-mileage British classic with only 50 ever built. It has been owned by the vendor since 1997 and has passed its last 7 MOTs without advisories, but it now requires recommissioning and shows some cosmetic wear consistent with its age.
Condition
6
The car has signs of gel coat bubbling and spidering in areas, along with slight wear on the interior upholstery. While it fires up and sounds good, it requires some recommissioning to pass an MOT, suggesting moderate wear and the need for some work.

The Scimitar Sabre represented the final evolution of the Reliant Scimitar SS1 lineage, launched in 1992 and ceasing production in 1995 with approximately only 50 Sabres ever built.
This 1993 example is powered by Rover’s 1.4 litre K-Series Twin Cam 4-cylinder engine with a declared top speed of 113 mph.
This example was originally owned and registered to Reliant Motors Ltd.
They featured ‘L323BFD’ in the sales brochure before selling it to Mrs Dean in 1994.
Mrs Dean kept the Reliant until 1997, until it found its way into the hands of our vendor, who has owned it for the past 28 years.
Presented in Azure Blue with Black leather upholstery, Black hood and Silver OZ alloy wheels.
These Scimitar Sabres are rare, with only around 50 examples built and few left licensed on UK roads.
You certainly won't be parked next to another one in your local Tesco car park.
This example does have signs of the gel coat bubbling and spidering in areas, to be expected of a car of this age.
