How do you stop a Classic Car being a Classic Car? RIP out the engine, change the brakes and suspension and stuff it full of batteries and and electric motor for stupid money........ and actually reduce its value. While I can appreciate the innovation and engineering involved, as a Classic Car lover, I'm uncomfortable with the whole concept.
I was excited to see we had a new automotive program on tv,
i have driven Hybrids for many years so for me the EV
program reeled me in and couldn't wait for the program to be aired
something new and fresh to watch but
unfortunately it didnt live up to my expectations it was like
any other car program and showed very little in the installation
of the EV conversion and explaination of the system layout
and how the EV system works was hoping for womething more in depth,
i will watch another episode if i'm still of the same thought
it will be the last episode i watch
If your a purist on vintage cars, this show may trouble you. If you like something a bit off beat, these people and cars are really watchable and likable. No apparent fake dramas, just overcoming the engineering issue associated with converting cars and bikes to electric, maintaining their visual charm but with electrifying performance (pun intended)!! Can't wait for more! Suspect the episodes that didn't reach a completed vehicle had something to do with the supply issues related to the pandemic.
Been enjoying this show.. status that there are no reviews on here.. it's available online via torrents but can't see it listed anywhere
I really want to like this show but it's very frustrating to invest the time watching an episode that contains a particular vehicle like a Ferrari 308 or a Porsche 914 and not be able to see them in their completed state. It seems they are more interested in producing episodes instead of letting the viewers see a completed project. It would make better sense to divide episodes into 2 parts. Also there is a narrator that can often be annoying and unnecessary.
They should take some cues from the many successful car shows in the US. Everyone loves a "before and after" story.
I really enjoy seeing European classic cars get transformed into EV's. The cast of characters are likable. If you like modern EV technology and classic cars you might want to check this show out.

- TriviaThe show was originally created by Rupert Bryan and Louisa Edwards. Rupert set off to create his own electric defender in 2016 when by pure chance he got talking with his Dominos pizza delivery driver who delivered pizza by night and electrified cars by day. Rupert visited Richard in Wales in 2017 and discovered the two car workshop at home. The rest as they said is history.
