    I’ve jumped that bridge 30 plus years ago in my white base model Metro. I’ve used the ‘drag strip’ for top speed runs as well.

    When he said he had something in the boot that was more fitting to him than a hair dryer, I thought it might be a power buffer/polisher. I guess a coffee maker works, too. lol

      As someone with a vtec mini and looking at ev options, something a little crazy would have my interest. Do you reckon with an lsd and some mapping you could have a bit of a beast to rival a vtec Mini with your kit?

      😂 not sure how we would do that given the rear end design of the mini but the Arrival race van will be 4 wheel drive

    Great conversion kit on a great car! The only problem is that the drivers seat is on the wrong side to drive on the wrong side of the road. Now seriously if you sell a EV restored left hand drive unit, I would probably buy it. I also have an MX5 NB that I think you sell a EV kit conversion Kit right ?

    • @Hazell_Nutz

      There are companies like Mini Sport that will build you a restored LHD car fully electric.

      Because it has a roll cage before it was rebuilt so could not have dvla inspection, it will soon be inspected and updated

    So… there is this company in the UK that makes polyester classic mini Pickup shells correct? And you lads make a drop in conversion kit to turn a mini into EV… Can you two somehow work together and build an EU street legal EV powered classic Mini pickup? Or is the problem that it would then be a kit car which would never pass modern day safety regulations?
