    I can't imagine why anyone would want a vintage three wheeler.

    Do these things have a reverse gear, or do you have to be very careful where you park it?

    yeah it had a reverse gear and 4 forward ones. In their road test of October 1959, The Motor Cycle magazine described the car as "a fascinating, front-wheel-drive sports car which combines economy with liveliness and superb cornering."

    Old tech Lead acid then, that'll keep your wheels to the floor.
    I love Hendrix for so many reasons. He was so much more than just a blues guitarist - he played damn well any kind of guitar he wanted. In fact I'm not sure if he even played the guitar - he played music. - Stevie Ray Vaughan

    Just read up on it - designed by some bloke called Tom Karen, and initially built by Bond cars, then at Reliant's factory. A very tidy one for sale on Ebay, yours for £12,500. Looks like something Commander Straker's housekeeper would come to work in.
