When he said he had something in the boot that was more fitting to him than a hair dryer, I thought it might be a power buffer/polisher. I guess a coffee maker works, too. lol
Chris & Nick, You guys surely have fun on these builds... I will see you early in 2025, and I hope you have something in the shop that we can thrash around South African style... ;-)
@@Hazell_Nutz There's people that modify the radius arms to accept drive shafts. There's quite a few people now running Honda 4x4 running gear in minis
Great conversion kit on a great car! The only problem is that the drivers seat is on the wrong side to drive on the wrong side of the road. Now seriously if you sell a EV restored left hand drive unit, I would probably buy it. I also have an MX5 NB that I think you sell a EV kit conversion Kit right ?
As someone with a vtec mini and looking at ev options, something a little crazy would have my interest. Do you reckon with an lsd and some mapping you could have a bit of a beast to rival a vtec Mini with your kit?
So… there is this company in the UK that makes polyester classic mini Pickup shells correct? And you lads make a drop in conversion kit to turn a mini into EV… Can you two somehow work together and build an EU street legal EV powered classic Mini pickup? Or is the problem that it would then be a kit car which would never pass modern day safety regulations?
4x4 mini electric … I think that would be awesome!
Definitely
I’ve jumped that bridge 30 plus years ago in my white base model Metro. I’ve used the ‘drag strip’ for top speed runs as well.

We always have something kicking around and some exciting new builds
Now this is ahem, Nutz!
Is that car ready for Carwow drag race?
I would say so
Love it... next mod must be to stick a couple of hub motors in the rear wheels... an AWD classic mini.
😂 not sure how we would do that given the rear end design of the mini but the Arrival race van will be 4 wheel drive

Wow, I want one, but I am too far from you guys. Nevertheless what an awesome build. Oh, does the hooter still work? 🙂
The hooter still work and still sound like a mini hooter 😂

There are companies like Mini Sport that will build you a restored LHD car fully electric.
Chipping Sodbury high street. Would make a great Autosolo venue...
It really would and I expect they would support it
@@Hazell_Nutz maybe this is something to pursue with Motorsport UK and Bristol Motor Club?
Yate mode looks like fun.
It’s great fun.
I guess yeet mode won't be an optional extra?

Have you ever used other BMS on some cars.
We tried a dilithium bms a few years ago but the Orion bms is a lot better.
