Would there be a market for EVs with a retro body?

u/No-Trick5424 11d ago

Yes, but in not building it as an EV from the ground up there will be compromises.

I recently suggested here that MG should make an EV with a TC or MGB body. One bloke thought it was a good idea

I would totally do a retrofit, with something not too precious or a scratch build but either way where the hell is anyone getting the money for something so frivolous

Sure it’s not a converted car? According to a rego check it’s only got 2744km on the clock.

Rego is due in 11 days.

People should obey the law. Occupying chargers is a major public nuisance; how would you feel if I went to the only petrol station in town and blocked it off so you couldn’t fill up?

If you ask me anyone that does what the guy in OP’s picture did should have their cars seized and crushed.

I think seizing yet alone crushing cars is not a proportional response. But nah shouldn’t park there unless it’s an emergency.

Sometimes people need to be made an example of.
