- Comments Off on Why convert a classic car to electric?
As electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming more popular and efficient, many classic car enthusiasts are considering converting their vehicles to electric. Car conversions are not a new idea, but the concept of converting classic cars to electric is still at an embryonic stage. While some might argue that a classic car should retain its originality, the benefits of conversion outweigh the cons. Here are some reasons why you should convert your classic car to electric.
Eco-Friendly
Switching to electric power will make your classic car eco-friendlier and greatly reduce your carbon footprint. Electric motors do not produce any emissions that are harmful to the environment, and electric cars are becoming more popular as people become more aware of the effects of combustion diesel and gasoline engines have on the environment.

- Comments Off on Electric Van anyone? 2 Nissan eNV200’s just arrived
We have just received 2 Nissan eNV200 electric vans and they are both fantastic.
They both have a host of extras fitted above the already great standard specification including a diesel Sebastopol heater which increase range dramatically in cold weather.
Both are great vans for businesses that can operate with their approx 80mile range but would also make a great base for a camper van conversion.
