I have just purchased a brand new e+ Tekna and am selling my now nearly seven year old Tekna 24 privately as I was offered a silly part exchange deal.
The car is in pretty good condition, at 43k miles, with all the bars on the battery but it does have a few bumper scrapes and a small dent on the nearside wing - is it worth spending ~£700 sorting these or better to drop that amount off the asking price and leave as is?
We have always charged to 80% just going up to 100% when we need it for a particularly long journey the next day (couple of times a month if that) Total of only 4 rapid charges in its life!
I just bought leaf spy and have done a test and am trying to figure out what it means :-SOH = 86.65 AHr=56.67 the bars look all fairly similar in height but all but 6 of them are red - is that a problem? The car has been sitting about for a couple of weeks unused - should I try and drive it a bit and charge to 100% or even go to a rapid charger. Would this turn it more blue?? Would it increase the SOH? Not really sure what it all means TBH. I don't want to manipulate it to something its not - I just don't want it to look unnecessarily bad.
