reliant robin

A small autocycle produced by the British company Reliant from the 1970s until the 1990s.

The tricycle infamously had a tendency to roll over due to it having very light and unstable chassis (being mostly made out of plastics). Because of its very light weight and the British law at that time only considered vehicle with four or more wheels as a "car", it was marketed as an "enclosed three-wheeled motorcycle", and only required a motorcycle license, unlike other cars such as the Mini.

Due to the vehicle's notoriously poor build and cheap costs, it was subjected to various butt of jokes in British media, such as in Mr. Bean and Top Gear.
