Hi,
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 particular to check? I want to reset the consumption and drive maybe 20-25 miles to get an idea of the consumption with the type of roads I'll be using it on. Do I reset the trip meter through the RLink system or holding the button down on the stalk?
Car looks to be in good condition, it's done about 48k miles. I asked the sales person if it was still covered under warranty ie has the previous owner extended the warranty once the initial 4 years ran out (I've read that you can then continue to extent it annually up to 10 years old?) She seemed to think that even if the owner hadn't it was possible for me to start the warranty extension again as it was from a main Renault dealer.... Is this the case?
I'm not going to be buying it there and then as I also want to drive the Leaf and work the figures out but any advice or things to look out for would be much appreciated.
Cheers.
