1. People all over the world are used to seeing cars that have 4 wheels, but that doesn't mean that 3-wheelers don't exist!
2. The Reliant Motor Company's Robin is still considered the worst car in the history of the UK automotive industry.
3. This vehicle in the UK was considered a tricycle, but not a full-fledged car.

9. And in the popular comedy "Mr. Bean", a Reliant Regal Supervan III van is often found, which constantly either rolls over on its side, crashes into a pole, or simply turns out to be expelled from the parking lot, which in itself speaks of the clumsiness of this car.
