The ride height has been raised by a couple of inches since we took our first test drives in it. These were done with the car still at show ride height. She is good to go on UK roads and before the Pan-American trip we will raise the height further...

Lots of potholes. Any way to jack the vehicle up just a bit? Great project, though and I look forward to a world with a lot fewer vehicles run on fossil fuels. Good luck!

Can't wait to see the documentary. It seems to me that you may have some problems with ground clearance. Presumably you have already done some research on the state of the roads in South America? ...Anyway great stuff, good luck with finishing it and with the journey. Great project.
