All roads in Germany must be straight with no turns.......
One morning the apprentice pick-up bus was 15 minutes early, so many of us missed it, we got 14 apprentices into a Reliant Robin van! I've owned Reliant's, 4 Scimitar's and loved driving them.
I always wondered why the single wheel is in front. If you're determined to build a three wheeler it seems it would be more stable with two wheels mounted in the front.
Well they did make a 4 wheeled version called the Kitten which was much more stable.
Both BSA and Morgan did just that and they were very stableQuote:
