A one-way camper. Nice...
Are Reliants made in estate variant or is the trailer modded?
It clearly looks longer than its mamma.

Now with a wiggle like that this Reliant ain't ever gonna wreck.

Reliants came in a saloon, estate, hatchback and van. A bodystyle for everyone.

If I'm not mistaken, the trailer is a stretched 1990's Robin, you can just make out the seam a few inches in front of the rear wheel. I stand to be corrected but wasn't that particular incarnation only produced as an estate? The towcar is a standard-sized 1960's Regal Supervan (a la Only Fools & Horses, of course).

While sleeping, it popped out to me that I am (was) a dumbass for claiming that the trailer would stabilize the car.
In Lithuania we have a proverb that the morning is usually more intelligent than the evening.
According to physics theory that I didn't take into account back then, the car flips only on sharp turns (I still remember Jeremy Clarkson in a red one on its side lol). The inertial forces of turning right flips the car left. Now when we add a trailer, it is kinda late in turning and at an angle with the car itself, out of its own innertia, it pushes the car even more to the left making it even further prone to flip instead of the effect of it pushing down the car's rear to prevent it from flipping in the first place.

You've got to really try hard to overturn them! The Top Gear one was rigged (but very funny!)

No all body styles were produced, usually, 3 at a time. ie Saloon, estate, van. Or Hatch, Estate, Van. Its all in a highly entertaining and yet informative book
