Take Charge of Your Classic
About Us
ANDREW WHITTAM, Founder
Our philosophy is to stay true to these iconic vehicles and preserve the original aesthetics whenever possible. I love the heritage of classic cars that embody a simple beautiful design. They have a few wrinkles and creases like all of us, but as an EV they now have a heart of ultra-modern technology.
With an EV conversion, you have all the pleasure of operating a beautiful classic vehicle without the aggravation. It's the usability factor - it makes the drive accessible to more people as you don’t have to have to deal with manual gear boxes, noise, and exhaust emissions … you just turn the key, drive and enjoy the view. I hope we inspire a new generation’s passion for classic cars, while contributing to a more environmentally friendly future. ~ AW
With over 45 years of high-tech engineering experience, my career began in Britain as an aircraft engineer specializing in avionics and electronics.
I became a pilot/engineer in Saudi Arabia, Papua New Guinea, Australia and the Seychelles before joining British Airways. After 25 years with BA, I finished flying in 2021 as a 777 Captain.
Now I've gone full circle - I'm back inside of an engine.
​
I've had a lifelong passion for vintage car and motorcycle restoration. Growing up in Cyprus in the 1960s, my family had a Land Rover during my father's time in the Royal Air Force. This early exposure sparked my interest engineering and my appreciation for these beautiful machines, I've been a classic car enthusiast ever since.
All of that experience has given me valuable insight and helped me establish a network of global contacts.
It all began with our EV Prototype
​This 1982 Series 3 came to us on the promise of being fully refurbished. As is common with many Land Rovers, the reality was somewhat different. We decided to use the basic vehicle for the prototype build of our EV conversion. This consisted of using a new chassis / bulkhead and complete renovation of all the running gear / bodywork before installing the EV system.
