Volkswagen has recalled 2025 ID.Buzz electric vans, because their rear seats are only configured for two people but are wide enough to fit three. According to the NHTSA note (PDF) found by Electrek, Volkswagen is recalling 5,637 vehicles, which were manufactured between September 18, 2024 and February 11, 2025. The removable third-row of the 2025 ID.Buzz are only fitted with seatbelts for two people. However, its seating surface width exceeds the value specified for two occupants under Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 208, which sets the standards to reduce the number of deaths in the event of a crash.

1. Are you an owner of said vehicle, Old Crank?

If not, would you considering owning one?

2. I don't own any vehicle currently

I might if the range gets extended but will probably be looking for something a bit smaller for ease of driving in Europe.

3. How about one of these?

Looks like it would be a good fit for an "Old Crank".

7. The head badge says Sunbeam Supreme

Could be a Sunbeam Talbot 90 around 1955.
I didn't find much on it and they didn't have the little ID shhet most cars had .

5. I would like to drive one once.

I really like that the fuel tank is in front of the passenger area. It might be pressurized or gravity feed.
I saw a clip of older race/touring cars like this from Goodwood and the driver was racing along and pumping up the fuel tank while cornering.,
