So that's Go Electric for £1000 if you don't charge anything for your own highly-skilled time, massive expertise built up at great expense in time and money, and presumably a very well-equipped specialist workshop....
Not a good long-term business model?

Finally: gone, but not forgotten..... 1998 D2 PF S8. AgateGrey/Platinum. Every option (I think) except electric rear seats, tiptronic steering wheel, ski hatch, towbar & dimming door mirrors. e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course. (internal dimming mirror added later) 1998 (very early) Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec; ABS/TCS, Heated screen/mirrors, Aircon, Auto-dim mirror, Leather, Trip computer, Cruise control, OEM Ford SatNav with CD changer. And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850! |

I think it's a brilliant idea, and am looking forward to Mikki's what's in the electric workshop thread

...and at least £2,000 for a Tesla motor, and that's without the electrics to operate it.
