I Contacted this company after they did the program with the EV Landy


"Hi, the full conversion starts from around £75k depending on which battery pack you go for."


Now unsure on an LS3 conversion, I though it was around £30k from Wildcat, then say £5k brakes, £2K suspension, £3k Wheels and tyres. So around £40K


That leaves a lot of cash left to fill up the LS3


While I agree its clever and the EV would be great..... its simply too much? While we can I would rather have the V8 until it becomes something else taken from us.

Andrew, thanks for posting.
I have been following their builds with interest but I'd love to know how they drive. Are you allowed to tell us anything?

Also is that the 90 in Selfridges?

Unfortunately I cant comment on how it drives.
I can say Its very heavy, the engine bay is full of batteries as is the fuel tank area and the rear floor is raised by about 150mm to house more batteries. The Tesla drive unit is located longitudinal where the original gearbox/transfer box was located. Modified propshafts take the drive from the Tesla unit to the up-rated Land Rover axles.
The vehicle is lowered.

Yes its the 90 at Selfridges. 130's have feeling's as well you know

Probably fossil fuel power plants will be phased out but at present the only other alternative is nuclear power plants which come with Hugh problems with radioactive waste disposal and solar power is a good alternative but is it being developed??
So power source for EVs is and remains controversial and not so green. Jo public are being brainwashed to look in the wrong direction and only think about emissions at the point of charging and not how/where the power source that provides the power comes from.
