I.D Buzz

[RayHutch]

What do EarlyBayers think of the new electric 'camper' here ? http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/money/...c-iconic-version-campervan-called-D-Buzz.html

Electric, fast, green, presumably rust-proof, driver-less mode...

Expected to be about £45k

Seems to be the way forward, I'd like one. If I didn't have to go to work I'd consider one , might be a little bit quiet up to the Early Bay though, no carb rush, no zoorst burrrrbble

Ozziedog ,,,,,, maybe not ! :mrgreen:

they'd need to pump some aircooled sounds into the cockpit when im accellerating. i find the silence of electric cars unnerving when you give them the gas. Id prefer a few splutters and knocking sounds then id feel right at home. :lol:

Looks like a re- re-working of the Bulli. It would be interesting to see a real one (as opposed to one made of pixels).

It's the future (so we are told).
I like it but wouldn't own one until it starts to fall apart and panels need replacing!

Is it just concept?

I mean look at the Up!, the concept looked awesome.

The one that made it to production is ok, but not a patch on the original design

Was meant to be RWD engine like the Renault Twingo

:lol: :lol: :lol:

I quite like it, but as stated previous - the production model seldom replicates the concept. The concepts are nearly always miles better!

WHERE'S THE WESTY VERSION!

When ready to move it comes with a pen with the earlylat / latebay engine noise working............... :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Forget the Westy. We could have a new Devon if we could find an old tin opener, a rusty hammer and a machete.

Ozziedog,,,,,,,,,,,,,, That's what Devon used :mrgreen:

Most definitely - range not enough and no Bay done to date (Splitty has). It will happen though.

the battery setup looks small but scalable and definitely has scope for additional cells and battery tech has come on in leaps and bounds in the last few years.

At least we know there is an option when the oil wells run dry.
