    "This Reliant Kitten is powered by a 3500cc Rover V8 engine and can accelerate to 100 mph from a standing start in under 10 seconds"

    "With stock scrap yard engine 12.81 sec quarter mile. With new engine 0-100 mph 10 secs. No accurate quarter mile times available. ( I ran 13.41 secs with the new engine but the track was very poor and I was getting a lot of wheel spin in 1st and 2nd gear. On a good road surface I struggle to get ANY wheel spin.) Top speed 130 mph @ 6500rpm! "

    it's fast.

    Its quick, although at the local cruise its hard to see it actually moving. The bloke trys to put the power down but its just a case of back wheel action for half a mile trying to get the grip.

    If you read the history its had a good life, with a lot of time and effort spent on it.
