Hi all. Long time lurker but have signed up now we are in the market for a 2nd hand Chevy Volt for the wife.
Firstly sorry no Amperas, I like them, the wife hates the front styling so it's Volts only.
We have up to £16k to spend sitting in our bank account waiting. Initially this was to buy a 2012 Volt in Silver 29k, at a Manchester Camero dealer for £16k but by the time we got the funds together it was sold.
Reading on here and asking around I know with the Chevrolet withdrawal from the UK and the lack of interest in the second hand market for EV's that Trade in prices are poor for Volts 18 months - 30 months old.
So if you are thinking of trading in your Volt and have a crap offer for the trade in please PM me here with your phone number and some details on the car.
Criteria :
Volt only, no Ampera.
£16k max to spend
Must be 30k or under miles (or pretty close)
Must be a 12 plate or newer under 2 1/2 years old
No Black cars (Pref Silver)
As we have the cash burning a hole in our pockets and the loan payments start coming out next month we are keen to buy asap as this is pretty much being financed over six years 90% with the savings we currently spend on Fuel and Road Tax annually. The wife gets free EV charging at work (2 bays 18 months old never used yet) and we can charge at home. With her 55 mile daily round trip we are looking at 95% pure EV use.
Thanks
