Nissan leaf.

Battery not included

I wouldn't drive a Nissan Leaf if they paid me £53 a month!!

[jumperjohn]

£53.32 a month, and in the small print, £87 a month for a battery, which is mandatory, which is why I wouldn't hire from that smart arse company

Me neither. But given what apparently hinders EV sales is the initial purchase cost (even with the £5k government grant) its an inexpensive way into a car with very low running costs. Especially when you think what BMW charge for a 3 series hybrid.

I hadn't spotted that. Bit underhand as its mandatory as you say.

Ha! Then it's more per month than my GF's Corsa limited edition! And she paid half as much deposit!!

It's clearly stated with a #

It's a separate charge after all

And it's only 5,000 a year

EV vehicles just don't make financial sense

They are only for hipsters to feel good

Do you want to buy my 335d for £50#?
