i would say the top one - purely because i've never seen one before, and thats a big box tick for me when it comes to classic stuff.

I would choose the Reliant Scimitar over the Gilbern Invader simply because I have always liked the Scimitar's style. The Invader is more unusual though and that has its appeal.

Never been a Gilbern fan because of the proportions, too much hip when compared to the pillars to my eye. So the Scimitar would get it, although I'm not really a fan of those either. Which is why I should get one someday and do something to it I like ;D

Volvo, Buggy, Discovery and an old tractor.

Invader every time.
Being able to say you have a Welsh car for a start... Plus rarity, plus nicer looking, plus I believe they drive better.

Another vote for the Welsh one - the estate of course.

Estate is an interesting choice. Although i had issues splitting between the 2 in the first post, if it was between the GTE and the Invader estate, i'd take the GTE. Looks much more poised and thought out than the invader estate.
The GTE wasnt technically an estate though, was it?

"GTE" = "Grand Touring Estate" AFAIK. It's not technically a hatchback, because no bodywork lifts with the glass. Did you know that Princess Anne had a Scimitar? ;D ETA: If the Scimitar were an SE5, then that would be my choice - I'm not a huge fan of the 6 TBH.

Gilbern, just for the rarity. Don't think I've ever actually seen one outside of a show.

Scim, just for the fact that this thread sounds like 20 RRers are getting an Invader each and I'd like to be different. Low with some subtly flared arches and some Comomotive CXs please.
