The Bond Bug was a small British 2-seat, 3-wheeled fun sports car of the 1970s. It was built by Reliant, first in Preston, then Tamworth, in Staffordshire, and was designed by Tom Karen of Ogle Design. It was a wedge-shaped microcar, with a lift-up canopy, instead of conventional doors. It was originally designed for Reliant, but was sold under the Bond Cars Ltd name after Reliant acquired them. It was only available in a bright orange tangerine color. Its fame was helped along by a distinctive Corgi Toys die-cast toy car. Although it had a fairly short production run, it has a fanatical following today, is much sought after by collectors, and has an active and enthusiastic club.
They are capable of some 75 mph, which is in contrast to the other three wheel Reliant cars image of being riducously slow.[ Visit the complete Wikipedia entry for Bond Bug ]
