Car SOS tomorrow

Sorry, not certain of the time
They're doing a MGB-GT........ and.............. converting it to electric
I'm curious, as to how much of the converting they show, in comparison to the 'Vintage Voltage' series

Sunday 17th
This morning
A64 westbound
Between Bilbrough Top (McDonalds) & Tadcaster
It made a nice change to the almost ubiquitous Smart-car
I was driving, daughter took it from front passenger seat

Blimey, a Bond Bug! I can't remember the last time I saw one of those. A chap I worked with in the late 80s had a very ropey one.

They were just a shortened Reliant Robin chassis. Insurance premiums did for them.

It was a Regal chassis, but you're within a gnat's nadger 
Oh, and the engine had a new head, so was breathed on, hence the 'dizzying' performance (said nobody)

Love the Saab, had a 3 door 16V Turbo S back in the day, black with tan leather, brilliant car.
I've always fancied a 900 myself.

I came somewhat close to buying a 900 convertible, a 2l turbo and it was a genuine luxury car and reasonably quick. I passed because it had a bit of a steering wobble but it was likely not that big a deal. In the end I bought a rather more staid 95 saloon, which whilst it's a lovely car to drive, newer, and half the price, it isn't really a classic in quite the same way. The later 93 convertibles, and saloons for that matter aren't particularly nice at all.
Later cars were based on a Vectra with GM derived engines, completely different to the original 99/900 cars which used a Triumph based 2.0 engine and unique running gear. My Father in law had one of the very last 1993 special edition convertibles, he still regrets selling it!
