wonder if this idea from Mercedes would work? might be cheaper than a Tesla battery.

I’m In Melbourne.

As with all projects, it’s taking longer than expected. The videography and the special simple parts that can’t be purchased at your local super cheap.... I’ll try get some photos this weekend when we’re working on it.

Came across this one last night. Might be an interesting build to follow...

A business is looking at electric conversion of older Landrovers. The one under way is a series 2. It's quite fascinating to see the story and the work that has gone into the car which is still in process. However to restore an old car and bring it up to a high standard is a seriously challenging proposition. There are really interesting vids on his business site. The name to look up is Jaunt Motors and he is in Coburg. Tough time to get this going.

I see Jaunt (the Melbourne mob) have joined forces with Fellten (the uk mob who do an mx5 kit)

Might not be long before a bolt in mx5 kit is realistic here. Some of those land rovers look the goods too.

Anyone up to date with things?
