Checking my YouTube subscriptions this morning, one jumped to the top of the list. YouTuber “Ipgas1” is selling his electric car, which he documented the build of through YouTube.
It’s up for sale as a “make me an offer”, so some lucky person might just get a great deal. The only catch? The car is right hand drive, and I have a feeling it is somewhere in Australia…..
Click HERE to go straight to YouTube, where you can see comments and the info the seller listed. (YouTube just changed their format a little. To see all the info in the description of the video, you have to click the drop down on the text that is directly under the video.)
Here’s the tech-specs from the YouTube description:
