The 1970 Bond Bug emerges in pristine white with black masking, in sharp contrast to the bright orange 1:76 scale car which launched the series. The wedge-shaped three wheeler with its characteristic frog-eye headlights is enhanced with silver wheels and windscreen wipers; the BUG name is printed vertically on both sides of the car above the wheel arch, again in red on black across the rear and vertically down the front of the channelled bonnet. It is registered AME 193H from the first half of 1970. Our model is based on the Bond Bug 700ES which offered more ergonomic seats a well as more padding over the engine cowl, twin mud flaps, an ashtray and rubber front bumper and a spare wheel. 

Classed as a microcar and designed by Tom Karen of Ogle Design, the Bond Bug was a small British two-seater, three-wheeled vehicle manufactured by the Reliant Motor Company firstly at the Bond Cars Ltd factory but subsequently at Reliant’s Tamworth works.   It featured a wedge-shape and instead of doors, it had a lift-up canopy and side screens, earning it an unusual canopy door coupé title.  The engine comprised a Reliant 700 cc 14, later increased to 750 cc and it had a 4-speed manual gear box.  Length was 2,794 mm; width 1,397 mm; height 1,270 mm; wheelbase 1.956 mm. In addition, it only weighed 373 kg. 

This quirky car only lasted in production until 1974, with a mere 2270 being made – all orange with black masking, except for six white models specially made for Rothmans, the tobacco company and a couple in lime green for Roses Lime cordial.   At a price of £629, sadly there was fierce competition from the classic Mini which was slightly cheaper and arguably as much fun to drive.  The Bond Bug seating was so low that the driver experience was similar to that of driving a go-kart. Perhaps the particular attraction was being switched on by the thrill and exaggerated sense of speed when connected so close to the ground beneath!

Uses same battery as the rest of my equipment
Size: 8" Edger New
Since I already have and like the Greenworks mower, string trimmer and blower it only made sense to get the edger. Even better that I didn’t need to buy more batteries. I tried another name brand electric edger and returned it for not holding a charge. This one works great! There’s charge left in the battery after everything has been edged. I was concerned how easy it would be to control but fell in love with it first time I used it. To use just pop the battery in, flip the thumb lever, squeeze and edge. Not as noisy as gas powered equipment and no cords to pull. Feels sturdy in my hands and a good weight that’s enough to not pop up if it hits something but not too much to be heavy to carry back to the shed.

First use was great!
I've used it just the one time today. I had previously "edged" with a string weedwhacker, so while the grass was cut back some, there wasn't a trench dug out. I did a gentle push and pull, taking on about 18" at a time to get a new trench dug next to the sidewalk edge. It did a great job! The entire unit was much heavier and sturdy looking than I was afraid it would be for the price, so pleasantly surprised. Assembly wasn't complicated, but it did take two of us to hold it steady because getting the screws to seat in the square hole and not have the cord in the way was a bit tricky. I'm a 70+ lady, not large and not athletic, but I was able to handle this edger with ease. Now, to see how long it lasts!

Great Yard Helper!
So easy to use and affordable! This edger is a great time saver, easy to operate, and relatively easy to adjust although you may need a pliers or screwdriver to help with the adjustment levels, but its not difficult. I would have given this 5 stars but just one thing that is a sticking point for me is I wish this had its own stand or hanger because of its odd shape, it doesn't necessarily balance upright too well. It’s long and the guide wheel in the front sticks out. So, it is always awkward to get it tidy in the garage when not in use. Now maybe this is what it's like for landscapers…I’m not a professional. Just a homeowner doing my own upkeep. With what this costs, I’ll figure it out, and is worth the money.
