Thanks Couple more:- 1. The G-wiz has had some crash worthiness added to its design now - how does your vehicle compare in crash tests? I suspect there will be concerns soon of people driving these type of 'cars' and that the government may well step in and do something. The NCAP testing has vastly ...

Hi Favguy

Is it classified as a car or a quadracycle?

Thanks

Cool...

I've just filled in my application form, 13 Amp internal for now, and booking in advance seems the best bet to start with. Seems fair.

Its eerily quiet. Max Current is still set to minimum of 275 Amps and will remain so, absolutely no need fo...

Hi guys, i have a couple of questions...

Many thanks in advance
