Electric Classic Cars
Our vision is simple: to preserve everything that makes a classic car exceptional, while thoughtfully enhancing the elements that no longer meet modern expectations.
We retain the iconic design, character, and driving pleasure that define these cars, while elevating performance with fully electric powertrains, improved braking, and carefully tuned handling. The result is a seamless fusion of modern engineering and timeless style.
We specialise in reimagining iconic pre-2000 vehicles, giving them a new life through clean electric power, refined interiors, and discreet, considered upgrades — creating classics that are as enjoyable to drive today as they are beautiful to look at.
Relik EV was founded in 2020 in Woodchurch, Kent, near Ashford, by Sebastian Jarzak, a highly skilled fabricator / engineer and Mark Ardron, a seasoned veteran and entrepreneur.
As the company evolved, Jamie Faulkner – an electrical engineer with a deep background in electronics and modern EV systems – joined the team, strengthening our ability to seamlessly integrate cutting-edge electric technology into classic vehicles.
Today, Relik EV is independently owned and led by Sebastian and Jamie, supported by a close-knit team united by a shared passion for classic motoring and engineering excellence. Our personal collections span Land Rovers, Porsches, Fiats, Fords, and more – a reflection of the cars we know, love, and restore. Together, we reimagine classic cars to be enjoyed every day, without compromising character or craftsmanship.
From the beginning, our goal has been to keep the nostalgic charm of classic cars while enhancing performance with modern electric technology.
Can you maintain that sense of nostalgia and those iconic looks, while delivering a greener, more reliable drive? This question and the challenge of achieving it are what fuel our dedication to EV conversions for classic cars.
We enjoy every customer interaction, learning about the unique story of each vehicle and understanding each client’s vision. Whether it’s preparing a Concours-ready classic or simply ensuring it starts reliably when the sun comes out, we’re here to bring that vision to life.
As a small, close-knit team, every member is involved in each build, sharing the satisfaction of turning a concept into reality.

The process
A bespoke EV conversion from our Kent workshop, built around your car, your vision and the way you want it to drive. From first conversation to final handover, every build is planned with engineering clarity and crafted with restraint.
We talk through your car, your goals, and your budget. You'll get a clear outline of what's possible and a no-obligation quote based on your specific vehicle and spec.
Your car comes to our Woodchurch workshop for a full assessment. We confirm the motor and battery specification, agree the conversion pack, and lock in your timeline.
Our engineers remove the original drivetrain, fabricate the battery enclosure and motor mounts, and install all EV systems - motor controller, BMS, charging hardware, CAN-based instrumentation and cabin heating as standard.
Every conversion goes through a full road test and charging cycle before handover. You leave with everything you need to charge at home or at a public CCS rapid charger.
