Reliant TW9
The Reliant TW9 (i.e., Three-Wheeler 9), also known as the Reliant Ant, is a small, front-engined, rear-drive, three-wheeled truck that was produced from 1967 to 1987 by Reliant Motors in Tamworth and then by BTB Engineering in Leeds, England. Designed and built as a business utility vehicle, it was produced in a number of different versions for various needs. After a long production run as the Reliant TW9, the vehicle was renamed the "Ant" by BTB engineering who continued to build it under licence until 1986. Orders were usually plentiful for the little truck as the Ant was much favoured by municipal councils in the UK and Ireland.
