Need help finding a 3 wheeler
« on: November 04, 2007, 09:13:45 PM »
Basically me and a friend have put together some money for a 3 wheeler but we can't find one. The only requirements are 50cc, has a roof and seats 2 or more. Our budget isn't big either, we're only 16.

Anyone know of anything in the UK? We are not interested in bikes. Anything will do be it a milk float or car :).

Cheers

That thing on topgear last week. The one you can carry into an office and drive around in it.

Being serious now, is that a Reliant Robin? Is it available in a 50cc version?

Well what exactly is your budget?
have you paid for training for the license, and enough saved for insurance?

Maybe better to save for another year for a real car, its a lot of money  :(

Not got a massive budget, but the CBT course and insurance is not much at all. We don't mind if it's a heap really, aslong as it moves!! My older friend purchased an old Ford Fiesta for £20 haha.

Basically, if the Robin is available in 50cc I would like to see it :D.

be manly and get a Quad, or a bike. You WILL be laughed at in a 3 wheeler. I would look out for Reliant Robins on ebay to give you an idea on price but they might be expensive since they are semi-classic cars. Clones of them should be cheap.

Neither could the old bubble cars apparantly. Which was a swine since you got out through the front...
