The engine was upgraded, first to a single-cylinder 250 cc and then to a 250 cc twin-cylinder Villiers 4T (optional only on the Mark G). The engines were essentially a Villiers motorcycle-type unit and therefore had no reverse gear. However, this was a minimal inconvenience, because the engine, gearbox and front wheel were mounted as a single unit and could be turned by the steering wheel up to 90 degrees either side of the straight-ahead position, enabling the car to turn within its own length. </p><p>Reverse gear of a sort was offered on later models, but using this involved stopping the engine and starting it backwards. This was achieved by reversing the Siba <a href="/wiki/Dynastart" class="mw-redirect" title="Dynastart">Dynastart</a> unit, a device which doubled as both starter and generator. It operated as a starter motor when the starter button was pressed but when the engine was running it generated power instead and recharged the battery. </p><p>The last Bond Minicar, a Mark G, was made in November 1966. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Bond_Equipe_1963–1970"><span id="Bond_Equipe_1963.E2.80.931970"></span>Bond Equipe 1963–1970</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Sharp%27s_Commercials&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Bond Equipe 1963–1970"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Bond_Equipe" title="Bond Equipe">Bond Equipe</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Bond_Equipe_GT.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/13/Bond_Equipe_GT.jpg/220px-Bond_Equipe_GT.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="111" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/13/Bond_Equipe_GT.jpg/330px-Bond_Equipe_GT.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/13/Bond_Equipe_GT.jpg/440px-Bond_Equipe_GT.jpg 2x" data-file-width="721" data-file-height="363" /></a><figcaption>Bond Equipe 2 litre saloon Mk 2</figcaption></figure> <p>The Equipe GT was Bond's first four-wheel car, a <a href="/wiki/Sports_car" title="Sports car">sports car</a>, with fibreglass two door body. Essentially it was a <a href="/wiki/Triumph_Herald" title="Triumph Herald">Triumph Herald</a> <a href="/wiki/Chassis" title="Chassis">chassis</a>, complete with bulkhead, windscreen and doors, with the <a href="/wiki/Triumph_Spitfire" title="Triumph Spitfire">Triumph Spitfire</a> 1147 cc engine. The doors had slightly revised glass, to accommodate the fibreglass fastback roof and rear assembly. The Herald's forward hingeing bonnet was replaced with a revised version giving an excellent, clean sportscar-like appearance. This was replaced by the GT4S model in 1964, offering 4 seats, and an opening boot lid. In front, the beautiful Italianate bonnet styling was somewhat compromised by the addition of the quad headlights from the Triumph 2000, flanking a cut-down version of the original Herald grille. A bonnet scoop was also added. A 1296cc engine was introduced in 1967. During the life of this car, it was not uncommon to see Triumph Heralds modified by the fitting of a Bond Equipe bonnet, as all the side body lines matched perfectly. Less common were Bond Equipes, bizarrely fitted with Herald front ends. </p><p>In August 1967, 19 months before the take-over by Reliant in February 1969, the new Equipe 2 Litre was introduced. Based partly on styling proposals by Trevor Fiore but mainly designed by Bond's own in-house designer, Alan Pounder, the doors had new skins and all external traces of the Triumph Herald were gone, with the exception of the windscreen surround and the bonnet catches. The Triumph 2000 headlamps were retained, but were now incorporated into a more stylish, full width grille. At the rear, the Lucas triple-bullet tail-lamps were replaced and this version of the car began to resemble the later Reliant Scimitar SS1, which would not in fact appear for another twenty years. This model had the six-cylinder 2-litre <a href="/wiki/Triumph_Vitesse" title="Triumph Vitesse">Triumph Vitesse</a> chassis and engine, uprated to the Mk 2 version in 1968, at which time a convertible version was also offered.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Bond_875_1965–1970"><span id="Bond_875_1965.E2.80.931970"></span>Bond 875 1965–1970</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Sharp%27s_Commercials&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Bond 875 1965–1970"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Bond_875" title="Bond 875">Bond 875</a></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Bond_1968.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/Bond_1968.jpg/220px-Bond_1968.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="162" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/Bond_1968.jpg/330px-Bond_1968.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4f/Bond_1968.jpg/440px-Bond_1968.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2016" data-file-height="1485" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Bond_875" title="Bond 875">Bond 875</a> Mark 1 saloon</figcaption></figure> <p>The Bond 875 was a three-wheeler with a <a href="/wiki/RR_layout" class="mw-redirect" title="RR layout">rear-mounted</a> four-cylinder 875 cc four-stroke, <a href="/wiki/Hillman_Imp" title="Hillman Imp">Hillman Imp</a> engine.
