First two weeks driving the cheapest 2nd hand leaf in the UK.
First, I didn’t buy it to be an ecobunny, I bought it to save my petrol cars from lots of short journeys.
Pros
Quite cheap
Easy to jump in an pop down the shop without feeling any mechanical sympathy for cold engines.
Innocuous little Japanese hatch that doesn’t feel much different to any other innocuous little Japanese shit box….
Cons
A real world range of about 40 miles max
Seat belts required industrial cleaner and a steam gun to remove the mould an curry stains.
My family and friends are worried for me given my past history of cars
Surprises
Just how many little trips I do each week.
I haven’t used the other cars – mostly due to work commitments and bad weather
To Do
Change to Octopus Energy
Work out how to do timed charging
Give up on Nissan Connect
