Real time updates, I'm afraid, Dave. Might be a while until it moves under its own electrons.

In for the ride. Was chatting with Sam about this at Le Mans, and the sacrilegiousness of it in some vehicles, but we agreed that Landies and DSs were prime candidates.

It's also probably the only way I could afford to have my classic over here as well. Really looking forward to seeing this progress!

Good to have you on board.
Not a Landie. But also not sacrilegious, I think...
Unlike that Testarossa !!!

Here's what arrived on the pallet:

Very interesting Richard. Will this be a home build or are you having someone do the work?

What exactly is that on the pallet?

^ Nissan Leaf drive unit.

The G is a good candidate but pack distribution could be a challenge.

Hi Feroz

Indeed. There are some challenges with integrating OEM (Nissan, as Jonny rightly says) kit, but I am a software engineer... Have made a bit of progress with the CAN bus commands, more to follow on that.

Ah, good, an expert has showed up! Hi Jonny, hope you are well and the e914 is all good. I will post my pack + packaging scheme when it’s a bit more worked out, and you can tell me I’m an idiot!

Just don’t lick the orange wires.

That’s our motto for anything EV we do at work :)

Looks like an interesting project.

Splendid idea, having watched Moggies Landrover I was thinking very similar…. And a mule for system development.

Fantastic. Will you be integrating the Leaf dash and column or anything like that? I love a G-Wagen but I could never live with Merc's ridiculous ideas about column stalks.
