This was my first EV, and one of the last ones out of the factory before they shut it down. It has five doors which is rare. It's now owned by a young couple in Asker who still comes back to me for service. Update Jan 09: I've just bought a new Saxo 2003. Looks great too. It is blue metalic, and has only done 20 000 miles. It will have new batteries from China (LIFEPO4). It will make the car 100 kg lighter, and the voltage will be increased to 144V. This will give me 20% more effect from the motor. It should make performance better... |
