Perhaps the owner viewed the regenerative braking as the only braking solution. Or he found usual dynamo/lighting troubles daunting.
I have not driven a huge range of other cars, but Sevens were the only ones where performance definitely eclipsed handling. With a powerful motor the owner may be in for surprises.
The rear saet area of an RP is not designed for greta weight. Nor the axles, or spokes.
Hopefully all the bits will be kept together.
I have seen it happen with other makes. One person meticulously rebuilds an absolute wreck, and another nonchantly scraps a sound low mileage vehicle.
Hope the steering arm is OK. Running into anything solid with all that battery could get messy.
