At last year’s Taffmog Winter Weekend some people went to Vintage Voltage in Newtown ( as seen on tv).
They convert cars to EV, including full restoration.
One Taffmogger blagged a passenger ride in a Testarossa. The owner had one already but was getting another. About £190k each using second hand/reclaimed Tesla motors/batteries. Really? The magic of such cars is the engine/gearbox/sound. Yes, great acceleration but the only sound was road/wind. The old mechanicals were being sold onto recover some of the EV conversion cost.
Popular conversions wereDiscoveries, Minis. They had kits ready to fit due to popularity.
In the tv series the big sell was always performance, acceleration in particular.
A travesty to butcher some of those classics they worked on.
