I love my Vitesse and it’s 6 cylinder engine. But I can see in the future - 15 or 20 years from now - it will become harder to pop out to my local BP and buy E10 fuel. And it will be expensive. And people will become increasingly unsympathetic to my smelly old petrol unit.
Knowing that an EV conversion looks relatively simple - keeping the same gearbox, etc - as a DIY project and will over time become much cheaper (standard conversion for all Herald, Vitesse, GT6, Spitfire) gives me hope, to be honest.
I’ll be in my 80’s, so likely my children or their children will be the beneficiaries. But still....
