    Hi all, I ordered a Kia Niro EV 4 on lease last month. It will be my first EV (and first car less than 10 years old!) And while I'm waiting for it I'm trying to learn all the ins and outs of being an EV driver. I spoke to a rep at the leasing company earlier today and he was very adamant that...

    I've never leased a car before. I understand that I don't own the car, but was under the impression that I would be the registered keeper of the vehicle. It arrived a month ago and it's taken that long for the leasing company to provide me with a copy of the V5 logbook. I needed this to apply...

    Hi all Newbie to the forum here, although I have been lurking for a while. I'm about to sign a lease on a Kia E-Niro through ALD Automotive. I believe they are the company that run Kia's leases. But a search on the web is not a pretty sight. Can anyone with an ALD lease comment on their...
  4. General EV Discussions
    So I've been looking at getting a EV soon and think I've narrowed it down to either a Zoe 22kwh or the Leaf 30kwh. I've arranged a 30 minute test drive in a 15 plate Zoe Intens (So I assume it's the Q Motor?) on Monday at a Renault dealer in Derby, I was just wondering if there's anything in...
  5. Tesla Model 3
    I just wondered if there are any lease drivers here and can share if they have access to their cars MyTesla Web Account after login? I queried the fact (with VirtualServiceUK) that I cannot see my M3 in the account (although Android App is fine with same login details). Tesla Virtual Service UK...
  6. Renault ZOE
    Certainly something I would've considered for myself. Total cost for 2 years is £6,627.63 (Deposit - £1,771.23 + £330 fee + 23 months at £196.80, 8k miles)...

    Hi all, I was reminded of this spreadsheet I made a while back for my own purposes to compare the costs of different ICE lease deals a few years back, and then a few months back I used it to compare the estimated costs of potential used car purchases, and then more recently to compare the costs...

    Good afternoon everyone, im looking into buying and EV, but dont have much money. I do 40kms per day, so i need a battery lease with at least 13000km. Im presented at the moment with 2 options (both paying in 120 months), 1st: Renault Zoe Intense 240, from 2016, with 1135 Kms, for 14.900 Eur...
  10. Renault ZOE
    Looking to buy a new Zoe ZE40 but I'm debating whether to lease the battery or buy it outright. The only reason I would not want the battery lease is that after 10+ years or so (time I hope to own the car for) whenever I decide to get rid of the car or part exchange it, the lease would not...
  11. Volkswagen ID.3
    I have posted about this previously in one of the other threads but thought it might be good to have a separate (probably quite niche!) thread for those of us hoping to lease. The previous info from my fleet account manager at VW Leeds was: "By the looks of our information we have so far from...
  12. General EV Discussions
    Hi all, after 2 years of campaigning we're finally due to get an EV charger in our village (for those of us without off street parking). My initial view was to lease an EV for a few years and then asses the extra vehicle options available in 2021/2022. However with a max budget of £300 per...

  14. Electric Vehicle Classifieds
    As I'm sure many of you will be aware, every model of the Nissan LEAF 40kWh went up in price by £500 at the end of December. Prior to this change, Octopus Electric Vehicles secured stock of new LEAF at the cheaper price for our customers. We are now offering, what we believe to be, some of the...
  15. General Renault Z.E. Discussion
    I'm interested to purchase my first EV. Spotted a Renault Fluence EV for sale but worried about the obvious battery longevity question. So scanned around this form, but have not yet found some of the answers to my questions; I'll enquire about the current range and SOH and have listed some...
  16. Second Gen Nissan LEAF (LEAF40 & LEAF62)

  17. Renault ZOE
    Hi A relative of mine owns a rental company usually all his cars are Mercs or Bmws for short term hire to Minicab drivers. He has told me he is getting some evs and would intend to lease them for cheap to anyone for a 12 months contract or more. Anyone interested to hire out a Renault zoe 22kw...
  18. Jaguar I-PACE
    Okay being doing some number crunching on the PCP Vs Lease question. Would like some advice on what people think? (Is the working okay, have I missed out something major?) (Firstly Jag's PCP on the website has gone down to 5.9% APR, but it looks like their final payment has gone up by £1k) To...
  19. Jaguar I-PACE
    I lease a Leaf as our local runaround car. Car goes back to Nissan end of March next year. So I'm starting to think about alternatives. Getting a new 40 kwh Leaf is an option, but I don't think the current lease costs are currently competitive. So my options I thought were to buy an ex-demo 40...
  20. Volkswagen Passat GTE
    So my lease GTE Advance is close to need new front tyres. I've just passed 20k and expect perhaps another 1k before I hit the tread depth markers. As it's notoriously difficult to get any sensible quality tyres agreed by the lease company, anyone have any luck on getting what they want? I...
