RELIANT PAINT CODES
HOW TO FIND YOUR RELIANT PAINT CODE
If you have ROBIN or RIALTO where the VIN / CHASSIS number starts with SCD
the following example shows which part is the Paint code .
Normally the VIN is set out as per example below
SCD123456HC012345
where
SCD1234 56 HC 012345
The first four numbers are the Reliant Model Code to show which Reliant model it is ; ....
. ie; Hatchback , Estate etc .
The next two digits are the PAINT CODE
The next two letters signify the Year and Month of manufacture .
In the above example the H signifies that it was made in 1987
and the C signifies that it was made in March
The last set of numbers are the Serial Number unique to that Vehicle .
