At The Classic Workshop we don't need a time machine to go back to when cars were real cars.

But it's handy to have one all the same!

Here's a few of the jobs on the go this week.

Greeks on wheels #13: 1980 Tzen Tonaco prototype

Looking like a traffic cone was another attempt at Greece’s three-wheeler segment.

It featured a lightweight composite body, a single driven rear wheel, and a two-seater cabin.

Although designed and built in Greece power came from an air-cooled, 49-cc single-cylinder engine ‘made in West Germany’ by Sachs. Essentially a moped engine, it sputtered out 1.2 horsepower with a 32-mph top speed.

In the end, just one prototype was built.

Seen at Hellenic Motor Museum, Athens.

Greeks on wheels #12: Alta A200

The Alta A200 was a three-wheel passenger car introduced in 1968 and produced by Alta, a Greek vehicle manufacturer until 1974.

The car was largely based on the German Fuldamobil.

Powered by a Heinkel 200 cc engine, the car had modest success in the Greek market but was soon considered outdated.

Greeks on wheels #11: 1963 Reliant Sabre Six Coupe

The Reliant Sabre was produced by Reliant Motors from 1961 to 1964.

It was originally designed to be a British-spec version of the Israeli-made Sabra, named for a cactus in Israel.

It was offered initially as the Sabre Four (with a four-cylinder engine) and then the Sabre Six (with a six-cylinder engine), available as both a coupe and a convertible.
The Sabre Six, introduced in 1962, featured a 109 bhp (81 kW) six-cylinder Ford engine, offering a significant power boost.

The Sabre saw competitive success in rally events such as the Alpine Rally, RAC Rally, Welsh Rally, and Monte Carlo Rally.
