Who you calling Fugly?

A G-Wiz electric car I feel a bit sorry for the G-Wiz really. There it was, trying its best. Well-meaning but - lets be honest - a bit fugly, and then comes along its ridiculously hot and sexy cousin from America which just totally blows it out of the water.

Getting Potty Trained - Why We Need Electric Cars (Part 2)

Danielle McCormick The Credit Crunch will look like a sunny walk in the park with an ice-cream compared to the day they start saying “Eh, OK people. We are running out of oil” Just look around you and see how many things are made out of oil!

Electric Potty - Are Eco Cars Really Green?

Electric_mini (Credit: Flickr/Brian Snelson) I see Lord Mandleson on the box, grabbing a photo opportunity with a new electric MINI, the government announced a £5,000 gift to anyone buying an electric vehicle, but Mandy was seen driving the MINI, a tempting little motor that if I could plug into my house even I’d consider. But, what they failed to tell us is that the MINI isn’t on sale in the UK yet! And nobody knows when it will be.

Kitting out the Garage for Car Restoration

Julian-Gudgeon I am kitting out my garage now as the compressor’s had it and the 19 year old, two poster ramp has also had it...

I’m going back to Blackhawk, the company who gave us a measuring system on Chop Shop so that I could do the Johnny Vegas car. I’ve been told that they can do me a really good deal which is good because I’ve been looking at buying some salvage work for myself. This may be a good chance to make another programme…

Escort Cabriolet - The New Azev Wheels Go On

Cabriolet This week I decided to try the new wheels that I bought on to my cabriolet to see if they fit, before I send them off for a refurb.

The wheels I’ve got are 17-inch Azev A's.

I chose these wheels because I think they suit the car and because I got them for a bargain price.

A Unique Conversion - an RS Turbo Mini

Mini I’m thinking of building a small car with a big engine and I’m trying to think of something that hasn’t been done before. Mini V8s have been done many times, along with Smart Cars with motorbike engines. But one thing I haven’t seen is a Geewiz with a huge engine yet. Mind you, if I was to put a V8 in one, I bet there'd be a few complaints from people: this is meant to be a ‘green car’, after all, I suppose!

Breaking My Ford Love Affair - Fixing a Volkswagen Beetle Ignition

Beetle-ignition Normally I avoid doing any private jobs on any other cars than Fords, but this time I made an exception because it's for a friend. I'm all heart me.

The one I’m working on is a Beetle-based beach buggy kit car .

The donor car used to build seems to be an earlier model Beetle, and has and old type of ignition system that uses contact breaker points and a condenser
