If you look at my previous comments you'll see I've chipped in on EV conversions of A2s, and that's not what I this thread is for, to discuss the merits, but the practicalities of such a conversion.
I'm psyching myself up to pull the trigger on converting my own. One big obstacle around that is what to do with the engine, etc?
I was wondering what kind of demand there is for a 105k mi 1.6 FSI that I would suggest is solid, but needs a little TLC (clean intake, fix oil leak around filler pipe), which should be easier when out of the car.
I'll be getting rid of the gearbox and exhaust as well. Should I bundle it, should I break it and scrap what's left? Should I try cleaning it up whilst out? What kind of demand is there?
I figured asking on this forum would get the best results and opinions.
Anyone with knowledge of pallet shipping?
Anyone done this before and what did you do with the ICE part of the car?
Remember if you'd like to discuss if it's blasphemy removing a 1.6 FSI, start a different post, I'll happily chip in
