Bit late for this chap, but when I lost the key to the one I had I was able to get a replacement cut by the local Subaru dealer on the VIN.

I then had to spend several hours upside down in the driver's footwell bypassing the dealer fit immobiliser, but that's another story.

That doesn’t look especially like a Reliant under there, it’s a Jago Jeep which was Ford Escort based.

Popular in the ‘80s but would you want reminding that the vehicle cut up for this was now worth £20k?


Agreed, looks like it's got too few cylinders to be a Scimitar, unless for some unknown reason they decided to downgrade to a four-pot.

A workmate of mine actually did that!  He was rebuilding a ropey Scimitar and put in a 1.8 from a Sierra.  There are some strange people about...

You're clearly mistaken, I'm pretty sure I remember Princess Anne completing one of these from a kit.

Were I a betting man I would say in about 10 years time £50 for a genuine factory Ford Focus rear quarter panel will be a bargain when all the OSF tax hits Mk1 Focuses and some loon is paying ££££ for any new old stock panels.

I think the truth is far, far more sad, assessing the crime scene and looking at the body shape, front suspension and pinto engine, my money is on this being an Eagle RV and the murder victim being a Ford Cortina not Scimitar or Escort. The only mystery I cannot explain is the G registration?

G could be a Mk1 Escort, the first ones were on an early 1968 on a F-plate, (same as myself).

Well you could buy it and keep it in your living room for the next ten years. 

Funnily enough my brother sold some if his old new stock Capri parts a while ago and had people falling over themselves to bid on stuff like a headlamp pod.

Hmmm,

Given how it looks, something's odd here...

Yes but not with a pinto or that front suspension and the body looks like an Eagle RV which was based on mk3, 4 and 5 Cortina’s😔

It would come in handy for the cost of a divorce if I left that leant up against the hearth for 10 years.

You're right, I had Jago Jeep vaguely on my mind and didn't look closely at the pics. 

As above, DVLA says blue Reliant, 1968, 2000cc.  Fuck knows what was going on there, (possibly back in the 80s), - just re-allocate the registration I.D. of a scrap car to your kit car build and hope for the best?

This. Or it’s a ringer. What you can see of the suspension looks cortina to me.

Whatever happened to the Jago on here that was missing an ID? It wasn’t this one was it?

@Stanky's old one. Trail went dry a couple of years ago - I assume it was broken up? 

Different Geeep anyhow.

I have a massive soft spot for this gen of Monty Carlos! The proportions are all wrong for starters and styling doesn't seem to match up. I get they were aiming for that 'retro' touch but it just fails. Couple up with it being a early 2000's product...I just love it! The facelift on the other and really sobers up the styling, also offering a V8 to the line up too! (FWD too yo!)

Personally love that one, if I'd seen that a few years ago. Who knows... 🤩
