so, I know 'Vintage Voltage' is winding several people up (including me to a degree  ) with their 'butchery' of modern classics but I feel it only fair to warn Graham ( in particular) that their latest episode features ................ a LR Defender  A top spec. Tesla motor and full-fat battery pack installed and the Landy is now 0 - 6 in 6.5 secs.,over 100MPH and full 4 wheel drive  I'm not convinced by their engineering prowess ( a lot of complicated/important stuff seems to be farmed out...) but would be interested in others comments. It certainly wasn't cheap to convert...... James

I saw in the TVTimes that was the next butchery project James, but thanks for the warning anyway  I certainly had no intention of watching the destruction of yet another icon!

I would rather drive a plus 6 in the wet than a landy flat out that is so fast. It’s many years since I drove a SWB in the RAF but my memory wasn’t of razor sharpe steering.

Or suspension. Or brakes. It is probably very dangerous to drive fast.

100mph in a Landie. 1. Where/how did you fit the RATO pods. 2. That's some underwear you got bud . 3. Should have gone to specsavers, that says 50 it just feels like 100?
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
