Given the problems with 3200 engines and the lack of parts (e.g. Crankshaft as NLA), an electric conversion might make sense. Better that than a dead 3200 simply being scrapped. We just have to wait until the cost of such a conversion becomes more realistic.

The Pagoda works, it is about style more than performance and its original engine is never going to set the heartbeat racing and some how the smoothness and the near silence enhance that experience. In this case it also gets the car out more as he uses it much more than he ever did his daily as he likes wafting round the city looking cool something he never did in his modern euro box

I would love to have a horse, but not keen on the feeding, cleaning up poop, and the general cost of care... maybe I could electrify one and a stuffed one on wheels... all the looks and charm without the pain.
