Albert Tatlock Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 I don't know about a Reliant Robin, but every time I go there I seem to get the three wheel trolley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x-in-man Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Maybe its not stolen - just moved .. I used to put one of these in a bread van on a regular basis across .. it drove the owner mad! Other places a 3 wheeler has been known to end up .. The roof of the University at Canterbury. An enclosed cycle park. A skip. On top of a double decker bus. Inside a catering fridge. In the engine room of a cross channel ferry. A school Hall. so - it could still be about -maybe they just need to look for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldmanxfella Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Fights at the pub across the road, fire next door - now that... This area has been going downhill lately... Yep a sure sign of a neighbourhood in decline is that somebody actually owns a Reliant Robin (or did you mean the theft?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lonan3 Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Stolen on the 26th? It must have taken at least 24 hours to reach Union Mills in it! Bet the engine was still warm when it was found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitro Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Surely this was someone having a laugh?, would someone really chose to steal a reliant robin?.......don't think so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mission Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 Surely you jest Nitro? How about this beast clicky Heh, funny how there's 3 reports on it, all quoting the top speed differently at 70, 80 and 90mph. Either way, get smacked up and your robin will fly!

Langweilig Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 The thief shouldn't get very far. They'll have to stop to wind up the rubber band. It's probably a student thing. You wouldn't understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I remember seeing on a program why quite a few get away vehicles in the 90's was actually reliant robins, the main reason on the police programme was given they wouldn't use a stinger as it was too dangerous and they wouldn't try any risky maneuvers due to instability. Got to be honest I can't see a robin doing 90mph, but with enough road I suppose its a possibility! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
