im contemplating doing my own budget ev conversion. would like some advice, im in the UK.
i have a peugeot 306 xsi 2.0 thats been sitting for years now....thinking about putting a cheap forklift motor setup in there (esc n all).
with some better lithium batteries.
hoping for maybe 50 miles range, not too bothered about top speed. i have most of the technical side down. just have a few questions.
for insurance costs.....am i better off finding a 1.4 306 for a conversion? as a 1.4 306 is cheaper than a 2.0 to insure.
or does that not matter?
also will i need a specialist insurance company for converted ev vehicles?
