History
Otosan commissioned Reliant in 1977 to develop a successor to the Anadol A1/A2, codenamed FW11 and based on Ford running gear.
Four prototypes were built by Reliant, with two shipped to Turkey for evaluation. The other two were considered for UK production under the 'Scimitar SE7' name, but a poorly received show appearance at the NEC ended that plan. Otosan dropped the project and facelifted the A1/A2 instead.
Bertone reused the design elements for Citroen's BX of 1982.
