The 2 times I saw my wife absolutely amazed on her first trip to the UK was the moments upon seeing

1. A milk Float
2. A Reliant Robin (this one she asked what happened to the rest of the car)

Worked for a car dealership for 10 years in the UK and the Robin was only one step up from a go-cart. Driving one in the snow was a nightmare because the front wheel didn't fit in the snow tracks cut by other cars. You plonker Rodney!

neighbour at uni was a reliant nut, even wrote a book about them...crazy sod

Yeah a fella about 2 houses from me in the UK would only buy Reliant Robins. Watching him, his wife and son all bundle in to it every Summer and set off to Weymouth for the week was quite amusing.

I think he bought an estate version after a while. I am assuming for more room.

The one and only plastic pig as we called it.

To anyone that has no idea what the above is, it was a classic british traditional Christmas day show.

still makes me laugh

Oh yeah, he used to do 'Question Time'.

All great but I still like the one where Del falls through the bar the best

My neighbours are big time Anglophiles and have more British tv on DVD than I have seen anywhere. One day my neighbour says "Hey we ordered some DVD's and they sent the first 3 series of Only Fools and Horses boxset, but we already have it. Do you want it?"

I nearly ripped her arm off grabbing at it lol

Nice one Poppy! Love that show. My dad was a car dealer and I always get a kick out of Boycie.

There are Robin's and there are Robin's!!

We had a teacher at school who had a reliant. It was school tradition that on the last day of school loads of the lads would pick the car up and stand it on top of a giant flower bed which was around 2 foot high, at the front of the school

I don't know why the silly old bugger didn't just get a lift in to school on the last day of term to avoid it.

My first car was a Reliant, I bought it for 400 pounds sterling brand new in 1963, I lived and worked in London for a year and used to drive down to Portsmouth my home town every weekend, I remember how small I felt every time a big lorry would pass me, but it did a lot of miles to the gallon though,

My middle name is Colin and when Americans pronounce it to my ears sounds just like we would pronounce it with the difference maybe that they use a slightly long drawn out O but the spelling of every colin that I have met in the US is spelt with two L's ------ Collin so they pronounce Collin the same way as we would pronounce Collin but they pronounce Colin the way they pronounce Colin Powell,

huh? I've never met anyone named "Collin".
