Default Mini electric car (Zeta) distributed by TADC

Bristol or Tony Crook related.
I think that Tony Crook at one time took on the distributorship of a small micro electric car and marketed them for a brief time from the Knightsbridge Show room. I have seen one in an Isle of Man classic car collection and Roger Dudding has one in his 434 collection off the North Circular.
A great friend of mine took on the lease of the showroom when the last incumbent's left and used it, and still is as his show piece showroom for Indian Motorcycles. A couple of months ago he took on the UK distributorship for am electric mini car and had a press launch there.
I mentioned that Anthony Crook I thought had done the same thing in the 60's and said I would ask around the club for memories.
If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be very pleased, I have looked through my Bristol/TAD Crood library but so far no luck.
