7 cars ? That's realy a lot. In our german Owner's Club we have 21 registered
SE* [+6 to be rebuild], plus 34 [+1 tbr] having in mind, that the ger-uk
distance isn't as far as to the states.
[ 2x SE4a, 1x SE4b, 4x SE5a, 13x SE6a, 1x SE8b (a swiss member)]

Oh, I realy like the SE4 coupe. From "my" point of view, it's the
best lookin' SE :-) If I had more money to spend on Scimitar's
(Reliant's), my second would be the Sabre 6 cabrio, directly
followed by a SE4.

Why not ? Our realy huuuuuuggge <g> club has 54 members :) Perhaps
just because of the existance of a club, the number of Scimi-owners
increased and the number of members grew from 25 in 1990 to the
mentioned 54.
Aehm, btw, the UK club has >2800 members. I entered the UK club lately
as club member #2820. Most of them SE owners.
Perhaps you can get in contact with the other state-scimi's, if you
ask the UK Reliant Scimitar and Sabre Owner's Club (RSSOC). Some of
them might be members, even I've never read of a state scimi.
Imagine, there are also SE's (>=2) in Southern Afrika 8-)
