Anyone on here got an Electrique / E500?

[Jane Rushby]

Flushed with success getting the old multispace on the road for less than £200, attention is now drawn to the Electrique that is in dry Storage awaiting diagnosis. Converted to 5 seat car. Batteries all good, it felt and sounded like a mechanical issue, collapsed bearing maybe?

Might be able to help with a little more info.

Are you getting a strange noise or what ,
Does it move at all ?

Ok, masquerading as the wife again........from memory. The daughter was driving it and "it just stopped". Further interrogation revealed that she stopped at a Tee junction and then car wouldn't budge without the Eco meter going into the forbidden red zone.

further investigation confirmed that, in forward and reverse, the car would creep forward but only with foot full down, so tried it with both wheels off the ground. Strange noise from off side/ wheel/driveshaft? which translated as a dozen(ish) cluncks per revolution of the wheel.

Other emergencies and projects then took over.....

On a not so dull day i will get into the dark and dingy barn to have a memory refresher
