High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Bond 875 was a small three wheeled car, made by Bond Cars Ltd in Preston, United Kingdom from 1965- 70. There was also a van version from 1967, known as the Ranger. The car was announced in August 1965, though volume production got underway only during the summer of 1966. The 875 used a four-cylinder 875 cc four-stroke engine from the Rootes Group. Crucially for the dynamics of the vehicle, this was rear-mounted, unlike in most other British three- wheelers of the era. It was the same basic engine as used in the Hillman Imp, installed as a complete package along with the Imps' transmission, rear suspension and rear wheels: however, thanks to the fact that the 875 had a fibreglass body along with aluminium doors, and weighed less than 400 kg (882 lb), the performance was good — better than the Imp. The engine was the low-compression version (compression ratio 8:1) as used in the commercial versions of the Imp – the Hillman Husky and Commer Imp van and was able to run on "2-star" low-octane petrol, which was cheaper than varieties used by larger and more highly tuned engines.
