    Only Fools and Horses???????

    I was asked to pipe at a wedding the weekend and was astonished when the groom arrived in this car!!

    apparantly it was uses very briefly in the series as a "stunt double" for the original that resides in the "cars of the stars" museum in Keswick.

    Sorry, but this one of your "American Cousins" doesn't recognize the car or the reference.
    Enlighten me, please?

    Amazing! I saw a three wheeled car the other day. The body styling was narrow in front and more contemporarily rounded all about the following end. It looked cute. I saw as it went around a curve. It reminded me of the three wheeled ATV's that were eventually outlawed in the U.S.
    Go, have fun, don't work at, make it fun! Kilt them, for they know not, what they wear. Where am I now?

    That car type is ALSO the blue one in the Mr. Bean shows (the live action ones) that is Mr. Bean's "Arch-enemy."

    In THAT series, the Reliant Robin (I think that is the correct brand and model, as they were NEVER sold over her) is constantly getting knocked over, which seems to be easy to do.

    Hi,

    I always enjoyed the mis-adventures of the hapless Mr. Bean and his 3 wheeler.

    Actually, I really enjoy all of the Brit-coms.

    In theory there is no difference between theory and practice but in practice there is.

    Mr. Bean was one of my faves. I didnt care so much for black adder...it was OK< but I was so used to mr. Bean, seeing him in another role was, to me, out of character.
