Nope, make this one warmer, easier to use and charge is next.Yaahhhh!! Well done.
Ist chapter complete.
Now to next one !!
Cool! How did you find this?Note the fuel type !!!
I found it thanks. It's odd that it still shows as diesel on one page but electric on the next, maybe just slow to update.Next chapter I meant ! The debugging and fettling.
Post is from MOT history. Gov site.
Check the MOT history of a vehicle
Check the MOT history of a vehicle from 2005 onwards, including if it passed or failed, its mileage and why it failed, download MOT test certificatewww.gov.uk
Excellent news Ali.
Thanks mate, once I get it taxed I can then contact the DVA to get the fuel type and engine cc changed. I still need to confirm how exactly as I don't have a receipt for the motor but hopefully it will be straight forward. I'm waiting until Wednesday to tax it so I don't lose a month but will probably only tax it for 6 months, to get the tax date as far from the MOT date as possible. We still have stupidly long waiting times to get MOT's but they send out a letter confirming the police will not take any action so long as the MOT is booked. That is OK but if it's not MOT'd you cannot tax it and then have an issue.Excellent news Ali.
Is there anything more you need to do to get officially changed to electric?
Thanks mate, great idea.Get in there you beauty! What a result. All that hard work vindicated. Well done Ali.
We need a LZ meet up in NI to celebrate. A convoy of smoke billowing, oil burning dinosaurs turning up to herald in the new dawn.
I need to tax it then send on the details of the conversion. I'll do all that after Wed as I don't want to lose a month tax.So they updated the MOT database, but are you going to get the V5 updated ?
LOL, thanks mate you have no idea how stressed I was.Wow, that sounds like a very stressful time Ali.
I must admit I would be looking into a different power source for the steering, which would eliminate one bit of complication. But at least it worked for the MOT, and you can iron out the little bugs as they crop up. That's no different to mainstream car manufacturers, who use initial buyers as beta testers of new vehicles.
A big WELL DONE from me.
Thanks mate.Respect Ali - you’ve done bloody brilliantly to get this far.
The luddites on the EV forum would burn you at the stake for this!
