=== Mk. 1 === {{Multiple image | direction = vertical | image1 = Reliant Robin registered July 1975 748cc at Knebworth 2013.JPG | image2 = Reliant Robin 850 - Flickr - Joost J. Bakker IJmuiden (cropped).jpg | caption2 = Reliant Robin Mk 1 | align = left }} The Robin was first manufactured in October 1973<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.uniquecarsandparts.com.au/lost_marques_reliant.htm |title=Reliant |publisher=Uniquecarsandparts.com.au |date=14 February 2001 |access-date=5 February 2012}}</ref> as a direct replacement for the [[Reliant Regal]]. These models feature a 750 cc engine, but in 1975, the car gained a number of improvements including an engine boost to 850 cc. The Reliant Robin was well received in the 1970s because of good work executed by [[Ogle Design]] (who had previously designed the [[Bond Bug]], and [[Reliant Scimitar]]) and affordable price, considering {{cvt|70 and 85|mph}} was possible, and orders increased with the 1970s fuel crisis. The final original version of the Robin rolled off the production line in 1982, and after a number of limited editions, including the GBS and the Jubilee, it was replaced by the restyled [[Reliant Rialto]] designed by IAD in Worthing, UK. The vehicle was also produced under licence in Greece by [[MEBEA]] between 1974 and 1978. {{Clear|left}}
