Thanks Rich. I do like to live as lightly on the planet as I can these days, but the lure of hooning about the countryside is still strong. The Mini with 180 bhp and 199 ft-lb powered entirely by zero-carbon energy from renewable sources seems like just the job for me. As for the sound emitter, the stock car makes quite a nice electronic warble at low speeds, which should be ok for keeping the pedestrians at bay when doing a lap of Waitrose car park.

It will be interesting to hear your feedback at 3/6 months. The roles the dealer will play in the future will undergo a dramatic change I guess. Hopefully it will take some of the less customer focused ones out of the pool. It all comes down to personal taste but given the choice between the Ami and one of the Chinese models I would prefer to be pedalling the Wulling MINIEV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sFSJDSh1jmE&ab_channel=FullyChargedShow For me the Ami looks like someone was trying to design it whilst watching loops of Noddy on illegal drugs. I get the non-conformist pretending to be forward looking thing but suspect they are just trying to hard to be individual? Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
