Imported to Norway around 2002. I'm fixing it up as I go. It has newer batteries, brand new charger. Dual dc-dc inverters were defect. One inverter repaired. Car works great; When I choose (in cold weather) between this and my EV Golf, I choose this one because it has the electric heater. The Golf has a diesel fueled heater. |
