I think I have found my first BEV, might need to save a few more bottle tops first though.

Just need a really good set of full coverage head phones to pipe in the bruuuuuuuuuuum bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum noises.

24 kWh battery would give about 20kWh of usable charge, so driven spiritedly you'd get 50 to 60 miles of range on a good day. But it would be a heck of a fun 50 miles!

I once " kept an ultima at bay" in my '93 4/4.
No. I am not dreaming, drunk, enjoying substances!
On the A40 between Llandovery and Brecon. I spotted a lime green car coming up behind. I recognised it as an Ultima. Awesome V8 sound. I got a move-on to stay ahead until the Brecon By-pass and enjoy the sound, imagining the 4/4 as the source. As we came off the roundabout onto the by-pass I was in the left lane leaving him to pass in the other lane. He obliged by accelerating and increasing the noise, waved with a thumbs-up as he passed. Several miles later on the dual carriageway from Abergavenny to Raglan I saw the dar parked up, the driver emptying his"tank" in the bushes.
Next day I went onto the Ultima section on Pistonheads to post a message. The driver answered. He recognised my " getting a move on" tactic and admired the 4/4. He had been out on a run with other Ultimas.
I had seen Ultimas at the Newark Kit Car show. Awesome! They had 3 cars in build stages there. Impressive with the big US V8 engines on the rolling chassis version.

Just noticed the battery quick change spec. Where do you carry the spare battery?

It's going to need more than a pair of 8mm spanners as well!

Maybe an ACME rocket strapped to the back to catch that road runner.
