EV testarossas!

[Jonny TVR]

I watched a programme last night on a firm who do EV classic cars. They plan to do this to 4 Testarossas!

I can kind of understand doing this to some classic cars but taking the V12 out of the testarossa!

Plus time lost while off the road for installation.

What's the installation cost, circa £20k ?

Completely pointless exercise, that car is built completely around the flat 12 engine. I get putting an electric motor into a classic car with a ste engine, like a Delorean, but not this. The answer to a question nobody asked.
