I suppose it's inevitable.... I've heard of folks adding extra batteries and then charging them in their garage - this then allows them to run on mostly electric for a lot further. Personally I've been playing with biodiesel as an option, which is cheap and easy to make from waste restaurant grease. Sadly though, our Type 3's don't do diesel. We bought an old mercedes to try it on - so far so good. In other news, my Fastback is insured for the summer again! woohoo!
