Re: reversible engine

The old Bond minicar 3 wheeler, using Villiers 197cc 2cycle engine
mounted on the single front wheel was able to go quite fast backwards,
due to a reversible contact breaker and 4 forward gears. One of along
line of bizarre english 3 wheelers (yes including mogs) whose sole
existence was due to a taxing 3 wheelers like motorcycle+sidecars, which
is same as motorcycles.
