History
Following the launch of the Mk I in 1953,
the Regal passed through many revisions
in a short period, with the "first generation"
using the original wooden frame and
discrete-panel bodywork design through to
the 1961 Mk VI.[3]
In 1962, Reliant introduced the Mk VII,[4]
code named "TW7" (Three Wheeler 7).
This version featured a new OHV Reliant
engine, a new steel chassis and bonded
shell design for the body, fully updated
visual styling, and was badged as the
Regal 3/25, Regal 3/30 (number of
wheels/bhp), Regal 21E or Regal 21E 700.
The 600cc engine produced 25 bhp
(actually 598cc/24 bhp) and the 700cc
engine produced 30 bhp (actually 701cc /
29 bhp). The 21E version was fitted with
21 extras, which were otherwise available
as optional extras to the standard car.
These extras included a spot light, a fog
light, chrome plated bumper over-riders,
sun visors, an oil gauge, outer wheel trims
and metallic paint. In 1973, the Regal was
replaced by the Reliant Robin (code named
"TW8").
