Why were so many EV registered cars used for publicity etc ?

[capritech]

Heres mine

[crapichris]

Chelmsford cars were used for publicity as the Ford HQ was (and still is) at Brentwood which comes under Chelmsford. Others used were .OO which was also a Chelmsford reg. I think that Avely and Boreham where the race cars were set up were also under Chelmsford

[mexicostids]

Thats a great bit of info My car was owned by Dagenham engine plant from 6/10/1969 to 20/11/1969 and i always wondered if it was used for any publicity but have never found anything to say it was
