Fact? Nope. Totally circumstantial.

An electric car like the Leaf or Zoe will do 70 miles comfortably year-round without needing a top-up, more in summer. If destination charging is available, or there are chargers en-route, that translates to an effective range of 120-140 miles before charging starts to become a burden.

Does the job for me. I've got two journeys outside that range planned for this year - 170 miles each way for a wedding (doable - just a little slower than normal) and a 320 mile trip to visit relatives (might borrow a car for that one - haven't decided yet). A Leaf or Zoe can make a good main car. You just have to make an honest assessment of the journeys you make and then weigh up the savings against any potential inconvenience. For me, the calculation was favourable. I'm saving about £900/year on fuel, paying about £30/month less than leasing a similar petrol car and I'm paying no VED. Zero tailpipe emissions is just a nice bonus.

Current gen EVs aren't for everyone, but they're far from useless. The technology clearly has a future - crashing battery prices mean that the next generation is likely to manage 200 miles from a charge. That's where appeal will really start to broaden, especially on the back of government plans to have rapid chargers every 20 miles.

i suppose if you take
1 year = 8760 hours
w = time spent driving between charges(hours)
x = top speed
y = time it takes to charge(hours)
z = total number of achievable miles in a year
{[8760/(w+y)]/y}*x = z

i think that is your answer. however it is dependant on multiple people roatating the driving so that sleep doesnt become a variable(or sleep/eat during charge time)
Also you would need to be on a track allowing you to obtain top speed asap and allowing you to charge as soon as battery is drained.(the time spent accelerating and stopping i have taken as negligable)

Hope that helps

Ha!! and my son said "when am i ever going to use algebra in the real world...." sure showed him!

someone's maths is wrong. the monthly way too low.

Link says "Finance Calculator: Unable to calculate, the OFP is greater than the advance. Please adjust accordingly and re-calculate."

The calculator refuses to accept those figures my end.

There must be something wrong here - if not, I would sign up immediately!
I'm paying £180 per month for my Renault Zoe on a two year PCP, and was very pleased to get that.

By the way, electric motoring is wonderful if it fits your lifestyle.

I love my leaf. Note that this is the 24KW version. The latest one out is 30KW, closer to 100 miles range in real world driving. Still a heck of a car if it is available at this price.... I save this much every month in petrol.

I agree, if this is really 125 a month it's an absolute bargain, I'll have one

Set the deposit to 0 and it calculates and brings back £125.27 per month/24

Do you not need to add in battery rental to the deal?

won't even let me adjust anything.

Bargain if it's right

I think the sticking point maybe when the dealer receives the quote. Anyone heard back from a dealer yet?

Most definitely an error for the following reason:

List price: £23,390

Nissan/dealer contribution: £5000
Total payable over PCP term: £3006
Optional final payment: £11,632.00

That leaves a £3,700 shortfall, which is probably still payable by you.

Looks like a glitch on the finance calculator.

I Got the tekna last June brand new £1500 deposit £151 a month 10000 miles a year, Bassets bridgend

Could it be that they have taken the £5000 off twice?

OTR = £23,390
Cash price = £18,390
Amount of credit = £13,390

Would be interesting to see what happens, if anyone goes for it, let us know how you get on

They have taken the 5k off twice.
First to drop the cash price down to 18 and then again to take the credit amount down to 13k. less your 3k over two years leaves an ofp of the amount they state.
This will get picked up straight away when the dealers looks.

Not completely impossible as they did a deal for a similar price a year ago
http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/nissan-leaf-visia-5000-miles-129-deposit-129pm-2-year-pcp-trentonhull-2165948

this is quite a good deal... shame i have a car already, i spend 40quid a week on diesel so savings would be outstanding for me ;/

battery lease £70 per month to add?

I call this the pensioner car, because I only ever see pensioners driving them...

We are paying 135pm 6k pa from the deal 12 months ago. Not pensioners.....

I've sent the quote to the dealer.
this is a great way of in affect leasing a car then handing it back

Deal is not impossible, 4500 govt grant and 5k nissan/dealer contribution.

30 kw on same deal for 150x25

What's the mileage limit on this?

Looks like there is a limit 0f 7000 miles and80 pound for batter lease on the top of that

Pretty sure this deal isn't right as the offer pages show prices much more increased than this. I know there was some great deals for the leaf a while ago but £152 a month for the 30KW Acenta seems too good to be true. If I didn't already have a leaf i'd be straight into this one.

Because its not a lease deal, its PCP - personal contract purchase

100 miles on a charge? So useless for anything but a little potter around town. I get 350± miles out of my Fiesta on a £40 tank of petrol, seems a fair price to go 350 miles without refueling which only takes 2 minutes to do! Electric as a technology still isn't feasible.

I use mine for my 12 mile commute. It's perfect. I have a charger at home. This (link below) seems to imply that the price is £18390 after the 5k gov grant, so with the 5k deposit contribution in addition these figures could be achievable. I got 150 deposit and 150 per month deal on the Acenta a year ago.

http://m.nissan.co.uk/specification?modelCode=104605&modelType=passenger&md2psid=6-145831998956037728

Just FYI, There was a dealer on the EV forums clearing a few pre registered new Leafs with delivery mileage for £11500. No battery lease, Accenta+ spec 24kw. So there are bargains out there!

100 miles per day range only if you are very careful
Put it in Drive rather than economy, turn the heater, lights, radio and wipers on and you might get 80 miles per day ( We had one at work i used it several times a good quiet drive)
good monthly payment but car has severe limitations
Arthur

Just got confirmation that this is not right. Nissan are doing updates to the calculator and is going to be more likely around £300 with 0 deposit.

Yes base the range on 85 miles. I have one. They are great but you need a petrol car in the house also for longer journeys. Great cars though. A lot quicker than some might think also. Fun to drive.

Plenty of families already own 2 cars so not really.

No, if I didn't have one, I'd have 2 petrol/diesel cars.

Well that's just circumstantial isn't it.
You might own 4 petrol cars already anyway.
The fact of the comment is that if you owned no cars you would need another.

As I said in the 1st response, £125 is incorrect. Wait for confirmation from dealers. will be £200+

Car dealerships are not usually slow to take up a prospect, so the fact that nobody has heard back yet suggests the dealers might all be waiting for a call back from dealer support (or whatever Nissan call it) after querying the price.

Tempting, very tempting, if this price is correct; but for now I'm leaning towards sticking with my Mk I Honda Insight. Not even got 100k on the clock yet, and I've had better than 82mpg. A second car is not financially viable for me, so if I got a Leaf I'd need to factor in the odd car hire for longer journeys.

did a quick live chat with Nissan retail and they said a salesman would call. he did indeed call and made an appointment to visit them tomorrow after for a test drive. When asked about the no deposit £125 a month offers he said and I quote "we should be able to sort that out yes". If so then that's great but if not then we'll lease the Pulsar deal posted the other day instead.

salesman will tell you anything to get you to the dealership..

Just had to talk myself out of this deal as I'm already leasing one car :laughing:

This looks a proper bargain though !

I think the figures are correct if this is not a Flex deal. If this is a deal that also includes a battery lease at £70 a month then 18K is correct. If it's a Flex deal which does not require a monthly battery lease then 23K is correct.

Depending where you live these can be almost free to run (Manchester has a huge network of free charging/parking points, so pays for itself quickly)

I keep seeing the comment about £5000 being taken off twice, if one is the dealer contribution could the other be the Government initiative/incentive for electric cars ?

Am I blind, what's the annual mileage on this? It's hot AF, I just doubt I could insure it as a new driver.

I have a leaf as previously mentioned. Speakev is a great forum for finding out about them. If you are worried about occasional long journeys, they will lend you a petrol car for 7 days a year (separate or in a block) with a full tank of petrol and you can hand it back empty. It may have even been 14 days a year, I can't remember.

Offer based on 7,500 miles pa, excess mileage 10p per mile.

Fact? Nope. Totally circumstantial.

An electric car like the Leaf or Zoe will do 70 miles comfortably year-round without needing a top-up, more in summer. If destination charging is available, or there are chargers en-route, that translates to an effective range of 120-140 miles before charging starts to become a burden.

Anyway. After 400° has anyone actually managed to confirm purchase at this price yet?

You have to get a battery as well so it works out £205 a month.

Voting hot then, a parking space near me will cost more than the car!

I put in a req for the £150 on the 30Kwh and got a call immediately, busy so asked for a callback on monday. Not hopeful but would be a good deal if it works out.

Well TBF the technology is already here just a little expensive. A Tesla model S does 300+ miles and is supercar fast.
If Tesla can bring the mid l 3 in a 250+ mile range and under £30k then Ill be a convert.

Nissan changed it now no more hot deal.

You gotta love car dealers. Sounds do able, come in for a chat = Cant quite match that but now your here have you considered.....

Made a enquiry, worth a punt.

They must be dumping them at this price, the £3k is not keeping up with depreciation. Shurly shum mishtake.

To repeat myself it is 100 miles per charge and the more electrical items you switch on, even if you assume it will only reduce the range slightly WILL reduce the range, it will also affect the driver, would you like to be 19miles from home with the display saying you have 20 miles range NO NO NO
Lets face it do we all wait for the fuel gauge to be well into the red before filling up NO
Also you have to allow for traffic jams, roadworks and general heavy traffic at peak times reducing the range
My Leafs range reduced by approx 35 miles if all the electric goodies were turned on

Arthur

is there any limit on how many miles you can drive a year?

What's better is when you can park in the centre of town for free as opposed to £4/hr, this means even more savings

I've got a Leaf and understanding the range is really not rocket science. It all depends on what driving you are doing, avg speed will directly equate to avg range and road works, traffic jams and other scenarios where you end up driving slowly mean increased range should that speed continue, it doesn't eat up battery just sitting in traffic unlike a ICE which will burn fuel at idle unless you are switching off or have clever stop/start technology on board

Made an enquiry too. Was interested in the similar deal from last year but didn't take the plunge then.

How long does one of these take to fully charge?

If only! No chance around me!

It looks to me like they've made a mistake and taken their £5k deposit contribution off twice...

OTR price £23,390, but on the calculator it says cash price is £18,390, but then the amount of credit with a £0 customer deposit is £13,390.

This is an interesting deal as I currently lease a leaf if you have unlimited mileage then this is a fantastic deal but look at the detail if you look at one of the earlier pages which shows the breakdown with the expected value of the car after two years if there was unlimited mileage the value of this vehicle would plummet think about it if you did 50,000 miles in two years there is no way that the price would be the same as if you did 10,000 miles there has to be a mileage limit on this

Well I'm considering a 2nd leaf at that price. We love ours! Something must be up with this, even if it's having to lease the battery on top though, it's a cracking deal!

£5k deposit!!!

Holllllllld on you only get 7500 miles a year I knew there was more to this deal than met the eye I suppose unless you have leased a leaf before you would not know

Nissan Terms and Conditions

Exactly!!!!!!!!! You have been warned

25% deposit is only required if you take 0% finance and then you only get £2k towards your car, if on 4.9% you get the full £5k and no extra deposit required by yourself, this brings the price to £125 again.

I took the leaf Tekna 1 year ago on the 2 year lease deal. Love the car so much. Forgetting money for a second. It is such a nice car to drive, lovely and smooth, very nippy off the mark and comfortable interior.

I did find the range a bit inconsistent at first. But I did manage to go from home to work which was 39 miles each way along motorways predominantly.

You can get the Tekna for £140 with a £500 deposit. I paid for the quick charger so I paid £160 per month. The leather and Bose sound is great and well worth the extra money.

My only problem is that I've just had my first baby and we are wanting a larger car when this lease is up and I don't want to give up the leaf.

It's also great not going to a petrol station and as most people have said u save a decent amount of money.

Who expired it and for what reason?

I've been reading into this, at this price it's worth considering as my second car for commuting. If of course the price is correct.

I have had phone call today about my quote. They said this is correct . They have asked me to pop in tomorrow to my local Nissan dealer.

Exactly what?
Warned about what?

For those with cash in the bank it can be done cheaper I think. With a £1500 deposit it is quoting £59.61 a month. £1500 + 24x£59.61 = £2930.64

Why has it expired? Good deal, offer still on their website?

Excellent for £3k over 2 years.

You would probably get more than £70 in interest leaving the £1500 in the bank for two years.

If you're one of those people who has to use your own car for work, and gets 40p a mile from your employer, then (if I've done my sums right) 349 miles a month will cover the monthly payment and the electricity (at 4.1p per mile).

someone people not being able to see the wood from the trees...bubblin77 clarifies the mistake oilit originally made and johnb667 followed suit

Just researching these cars for the first time because of this deal. couple of things suprised me. The insurance group is pretty high. I assumed it would be low for some reason. Maybe you associate eco with cheap. Not for insurance purposes!
Also charging seems like a proper (and potentially expensive) faff.
Dedicated charging sockets installed at your house for the type of cable needed for decent charge. To use a 3 pin needs a different cable with its own issues. if you get it with 3 pin you need to buy another cable for charging points, upwards of 400 quid! Alternatively get it with charging point dedicated cable and you pay a fortune for a 3 pin. What a headache. No wonder people will pay more just to stick in a gallon of petrol within 2 minutes.

We have had ours for a year 7.5k miles and get 3.8 miles per kwh in major stop start short journey motoring - before we had a 1.9 diesel for same journeys and got mid 30s mpg at best - and of course it was completely unsuited to a diesel so it broke all the time.

I know they will contribute £5000 I mean the 7500 miles goes very quickly when you have a vehicle that for months you can't use cos your mileage gets quickly used up and insurance is high I love the leaf but it isn't a cheap fix its cost me a lot of money but I can afford it so it's worth it

WTF

Exactly.... You clearly have time for a 20min sleep and a sandwich while its charging, so "y" is pretty irrelevant! :laughing:

Same goes for all lease deals - you go over the mileage allowance, you get charged. It's usually a better idea to ask for a quote on your actual mileage as this generally works out cheaper than paying any excess.

The average mileage for drivers in the UK is 7900, so 7500 miles should be appealing to a decent number of people, even if it isn't right for you.

I hear what you're saying but when you have a family and you drive on holiday and various things like this 7 1/2 thousand miles will get you absolutely nowhere as a vehicle to commute to central London and back it's fantastic you park in central London for up to 4 hours and you're only obligation is to move your vehicle to another pay you pay £10 a year to register the vehicle with TfL in London you have two or else you will pay the congestion charge which for this vehicle is free there is no road tax again which is fantastic
The problem is the insurance is very high that depreciation is very high and in truth I'm always worried if you have a little scratch or a chip in the windscreen they will take a fortune off the value of the car that's one bit of advice I would give people if you do get this vehicle and you give it a minor bump or scratch make sure you repair it properly before you return it because the lease company will knock thousands off the vehicles future value

I agree the mileage constraint can be an issue for some people. This car is not for people who do regular long journeys. But you can request a quote for a higher mileage. There are deals to be had on this car. When I picked my Leaf up last year on a similar deal I was told by the dealer I could have more or less named my price as they wanted to get this model out there, despite him initially saying they couldn't get anywhere near the deal when I took it in there.

Not sure where this idea of high insurance comes from. I pay less for it than I did its replacement, a diesel Focus. Just need to shop around. This car has saved me loads in fuel payments, car tax and repair bills. And as for depreciation, well you don't need to worry about that as you hand the car back at the end and owe nothing. Only issue for me is the looks but if you can live with that, it's a bargain.

I have just called my local dealer and talked him through the website options with him but he says it's completely different to the one showing on his work system! He has gone to investigate

Just had a call back from the dealer it looks like that offer doesn't include the battery which is an extra £70 a month and they don't have any stock of that offer anyway so that looks like a website error. Saying that I hope to be corrected so if anyone gets some information please can they post the name of the person and the branch they spoke to. I spoke to Letchworth branch

Spoke to Westway Coventry and 100% website error, £5k deposit taken off twice as suspected.
I am looking for the cheapest lease/pcp deal out there, anyone help please?
Thanks in advance.

I got my leaf from nissan in Derby. Ask for Jonno he's a good guy open to a deal. I travelled from south Manchester to pick it up.
If you can pay the extra and get the Tekna.

Guys, simple question which no one has been able to answer so far...

has anyone managed to successfully get this deal at the prices stated originally?

OP your input would be greatly appreciated too.

Not turbocharged. :smiley:

​Ops fair one. I told the misses it was as trying to convince her to get rid of her 25mpg mini Cooper s so shhhhh please

Also hoping for some feedback from people who have had figures confirmed by dealers! One of these would be perfect for our second car for quick hops to work, shops etc. Sounds too good to be true but sometimes these things are - we've just done the A4 lease deal which we thought would never come off on a million years!

just spoke to nissan they confirmed deal is correct !

booked a appointment for this afternoon

Exactly. The Chevrolet Bolt can do 200 miles, and the new Nissan Leaf can too I believe.
The Tesla Model 3 will also do 200 miles.

In Tesla's case, rapid charger use is free. Many will use solar panels, so the power is green.
And you can recharge to around 80% capacity in 30 mins.

200 mile range electric cars are useable in nearly every scenario. It's normal to take a break if you're going to do more than that, and can charge it when you stop and have a rest.

Electric cars are just vastly superior. In terms of performance and maintenance nothing beats them really.
Battery technology will improve, and then the nay sayers will have no argument regarding all the range anxiety FUD.

Even if they run off gas etc. (which is still cleaner and more efficient), people seem to ignore the amount of concetrated cancer causing polution wide spread electric vehicle adoption in congested cities will have.

Moving those emissions to cleaner emmisions coming out of a power station - with the potential for carbon capture and storage, is a no brainer.

Cities will be so much more pleasant without all the noise and air pollution!

I can't wait for the Tesla Model 3. Should be the perfect car, as hatchbacks are often argued to be the most practical, and a great car size.

Called 2 dealerships, both said will investigate and get back to me.

Can you post a link up of the Citroen deal please?

Completed the online form for Aldershot West Way Nissan, decided to go in and ask, along with a test drive. The deal/site does look like an issue. When the dealers tried to process a deal through their systems it wasn't possible at the rates on the site. A call to the GM also confirmed there was an issue with the advertised representative example,
Dealers are going to speak with Nissan HQ on Monday so will have to wait and see what comes of it. They printed off the representative example which shows a customer deposit + repayments of £219 a month ..
Test drove the car and found it very nice, shame this looks to be too good to be true!
Monthly payments £219.00
Nissan Deposit Contribution £5,000.00
Customer Deposit £2,859.13
Cash Price £23,390.00
Amount of Credit £15,530.87
Optional final payment £11,632.00
Total Amount Payable £24,747.13
APR 4.90% APR Representative
Duration 25 months
Rate of Interest P.A. (Fixed) 4.9%

​Yep, £129.72 for 24 months

I completed the form yesterday and got a call a few minutes ago from London West. The guy said he didn't know anything about that deal but that he would find out with Nissan and let me know tomorrow or Tuesday. He even said/joked that if the deal was correct he would get one for himself!
I think this is too good to be true, but who knows.. Let's wait and see.

Hi all, quick update for you...

I just popped into Nissan in Leicester and spoke to a lady called Annie. I showed her the deal (not on HUKD, but by manually finding it on the Nissan website so she couldn't say its an unofficial deal!)

she saw the deal with her own two eyes then entered it into their own dealer software and unfortunately it turns out it's not possible. As some previous comments have mentioned, there's a £5k deficit which is an error on the Nissan website based calculator. It takes the dealer contribution into account twice.

Her software showed that entering a customer deposit of £5k brings the price down to exactly what this deal shows.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news! If anyone gets a different response from their dealer PLEASE update us!!!

What about the government grant?, doesn't that equate to £5k as well

The government grant is already taken into account. it's £4.5k

So it happens the guy from Nissan called me back just when I was about to leave that it's web error that won't do that deal.

[quote=accvio]There must be something wrong here - if not, I would sign up immediately!
I'm paying £180 per month for my Renault Zoe on a two year PCP, and was very pleased to get that.
By the way, electric motoring is wonderful if it fits your lifest

​I was told the £4.5k is included in the OTR price.

The car is £27,500 ish to start with!

Got same message from Renault London West that they are investigating the quote but it doesn't look right.

If you cannot then you are either a high rate taxpayer and you have already filled up the decent bank accounts or you have not got a bank account paying at least 3%

got a phone call from nissan dealer - the price is wrong on the website by £5k which the customer would have to add in to the calculations in order to get the car for the stated monthly payment amounts. Nissan is apparently looking to rectify this shortly.

Deal should be expired.

Can someone explain what this deal is? Is it to buy the car? Or to rent it? What happens at the end of 24 months?

The Government grant is 5k up until the end of March 16. It then drops to 4.5.
If they are stating the rrp of 27k includes 5k Grant already taken off they are either
A, coming up with a convenient excuse that fits because they don't actually know or B, selling the most overpriced bag of sh#t car in the first place.
I would imagine the first is correct in this instance.

Success!!!!! Thanks Op - if I could vote HOT 20 times I would!
Also available Acenta 30kW with 6.6kW charger for around £150/m or 30kW Tekna for around £190/m.
Requires government grant, Nissan discount and dealer discount for this price, not all of which are applicable to all models, and will almost certainly require you to do this before the end of March, and not all dealers may be able to give you the level of discount to reach this, but you should be able to get close.
At the end you can hand it back, buy it (either outright or through finance) or part exchange it. The only charges are the monthly cost, insurance and charging costs.
Insurance prices are not crazy either.

No and yes. I think most people would answer the same.

So one success and lots of failures. I will watch this thread with interest this week. Let's hope the one who got it isn't bull@#£%&ng

is this deal checking out?

Sorry for the delay, I wanted to check with the salesman I dealt with it was ok to post his contact details (thankfully he still checks his work email in the evenings)
Do me a favour and mention you got his details from me (Zzzzeb) and it'd be great if you could drop me a Private Message as well please.

He's since asked me to point out that 'every deal will be individual to each customer and only for cars avaliable for cars registered this quarter.' i.e. get in quick, this deal needs to be agreed and financed before March 31st.

Took me a couple of hours including a short test drive to get all the initial details and paperwork lined up. I was after a cheap commute/town runaround, so went for the basic one that qualified for the various discounts. Seemed like there's a fairly small amount of cars available that can be offered, since the colour choice was limited (black, red or blue).

Thanks. PM and email request sent.

So what exactly have you signed up for? Which model at what price? Thanks.

Battery leasing only applies to their Flex plans. This isn't a flex plan. Also, the lady at Nissan mentioned that they rarely ever sell the Flex plans.

Be careful with this deal, i had a green leaf and it turned brown in the autumn and blew away.

Someone with white hair :smiley: and in the case of my neighbour, someone who keeps clipping other cars on the left side because he can't judge how close he is....
I do, being a 6'3" Yamaha Fazer 1000 rider :smiley:

Just checked the website and now the offer/calculations section is not showing the same deal/options. Seems the issue has been reported and the offer is not available.
Still awaiting a response from Nissan in Aldershot - will update once a decision has been made ...

I emailed Jack Castle at Baileys Nissan, Canterbury, Kent last night with my contact details.
He telephoned at 9:00 a.m. this morning and the deal is done.
What a refreshing change, a car salesman who actually had an extensive knowledge of the vehicles he sells and 100% proficient in his job! Don't hang about though, only available to a select few to meet quarterly sales target.

So what did you get and what was the deal? I'm still waiting for a call back

Choice of models, you choose the mileage to suit you. Battery bought, NOT LEASED. I was on the phone 45 minutes discussing the options, very easy purchase. CARWOW dealers are offering some great deals too.

Submitted my request for a call back at the Mansfield branch,so far not had a call and to be honest I can't see them honouring the offer.

Did anyone screen grab the deal on the website before they removed it?

Any chance you successful people can tell the rest of the community which dealer you used as everyone else in the county seems to have trouble getting a dealer that will honour what you keep saying your getting!!!

On the mobile app this works. I couldn't get it on the desktop browser version (who uses desktops anyway!)
Thanks

I just had an email from my local dealership confirming that it was in error and is £5000 less than it should be. Well done to anyone who's got it at this price!

Thanks for the info - much appreciated.

Response from Tunbridge Wells Nissan:

Thank you for your enquiry, my apologies that the online calculator was giving false readings although I have spoken to my sales manager and in light of this he willing to give you preferential purchase terms on a Nissan LEAF.

This is something we could maybe do for you, if you are interested. Based on a Nissan LEAF ACENTA PLUS IN WHITE. However we only have this one available for these terms.

Deposit £0
Monthly £260.53

or

Deposit £2250.00
Monthly £199.89

Let me know if this is of interest.

Many thanks,

That doesn't make a lot of sense
The difference between the monthly costs is 60.64×24=1,455.36
So why would anyone pay almost £800 more at the start?

Update: just spoke with Jack. He said that they probably had 2 cars that were offered at the £125 to £150 range. Those have gone. he may get a new allocation from 1 April, where the deal may or may not be as good. He has taken my name and number and will call me in April. Hence, the deal on the Nissan website the weekend just gone, is NOT now available from Jack Castle at Baileys Nissan.

I realize that some people are unconvinced that there are deals of this sort on a leaf but does it not make sense that with falling fuel prices Nissan will have to offer more attractive deals? If it appears at this price again I may be swayed, thanks for posting

I'm still waiting for Nissan in Nottingham,they have passed it to his manager to look at,for the price id love it as my main car if only for the 2 years and then give it back

Totally correct, I ordered the 30kw acenta with him first thing this morning @ £125.84 x 24 months, 8,000 miles and 8p a mile if you go over, battery bought with no customer deposit. Absolutely stonking deal, didn't even think about it.
These sort of deals are always available at the very end of each quarter as dealers have sales targets to meet for the bonus from the car manufacturer.
Jack's details were posted LAST NIGHT, not sure why people were asking today where the deal was available!
You snooze you lose guys.
Thanks to Zzzzeb for the heads up!

I managed to get one for £150 a month from Jack at about 1pm. Bloomin HUKD app wouldn't refresh the thread so I assumed no more comments! Wasn't till I looked using the browser that I saw all the helpful info about the dealer. Thanks all

so no one got one at £125 then?

sorry muffboy, don't believe you.

Did anyone actually buy this deal???

nope, but its a shame that you feel the need for attention and in doing so delude all the nice folks on here.

Mods, this deal should be expired and marked as a mistake by Nissan.

Been in touch with 5 dealerships in the area,none of them could get anywhere close to this offer but I have spoken with Canterbury who confirmed it was an honoured offer to the lucky people who got the deal.

Guys, the deals are still out there if you look in the right places. I used carwow to get quotes, try it you will be pleasantly surprised at the best deal currently. Downside is deal has to be done by 31 March.
On a like for like basis to the heading I have been offered a better deal than shown on this topic so give it a try if you are in the market and can complete this month.
I have absolutely nothing to do with carwow, all I am doing is sharing my experience.

post a link please kdol. just to be sure you are saying you have seen a better deal than the OP posted? Good to see the proof please?

I got really lucky,managed to get the 24kw accenta in black,16 plate brand new,12,000 miles a year on the 2 year PCP. 0% deposit and £155 a month. Tried to get some free mats thrown in but wasnt successful

Which dealer did you get that from?

Nissan in Chesterfield, they had 1 leaf that had been ordered for someone who could no longer go ahead with the purchase and they needed to sell it by the end of this month to meet their targets so apprantly it was either register it as a demo car or sell it with the discounts.

Nissan Aldershot provided the following response:

"the website is now fixed, please go back through the process and select the deal you would like". In other words, this is a glitch and we wont be offering a deal against it.
There was no other offer as a half way attempt to bridge the gap, the dealer confirmed that it would be a massive loss to the company to honour the deal and is surprised any other dealers are able to.

It has been mentioned to expire the deal - as the website glitch has been updated and the deal is no longer even visible, I concur.

Thanks op had my confirmation letter from Nissan yesterday

My Leaf is due to be delivered in April.

Looking forward to it.

I had a test drive last year and loved the drive but the price put me off.

battery bought?

Yeah battery included,not on the flex

Paying £114 per month for a Renault Zoe, so not impossible.

I was offered Leaf Tekna 30kW, 8000 miles, 36 months, for £250 per month, no deposit - is this a good deal?

Would you like to see a photo of my new Leaf delivered today? Then you might stop insinuating that I lie.

I agree Muffboy. Got mine on Friday

Outrageous deal

Hello Karl.

I paid 500 upfront and 160 a month for my leaf Tekna in Metalic grey almost 1 year to the day. Great car. Really nice to drive

​Was it a lease or PCP? Not sure when 30kWh batteries were introduced but I assume yours is 24 kW? I am expecting 30kW version to be more expensive, although not sure if I need Tekna on the other hand - as Acenta is quite well equipped anyway.

6.6kW charger seems to be a good idea if charging a lot away from home?

Amazingly Nissan have managed to mess up their finance examples, again!:

All other offers state an optional final payment - this example suggests the car is yours (even though the figures don't add up!)

It doesn't suggest the car is yours at all, the full breakdown of the finance figures is not given.

thanks op we now have the car

​what deal did you go for?

Accenta £150 a month

looks like I am always late for good lease deals, as i it hard to find cheap leaf now

Electric and plug-in hybrid car owners will have to pay £5 to charge their vehicles at motorway services from next week, it has been announced.
Ecotricity, which is the sole provider for around 300 charging posts up and down the UK's motorway network, said it will abolish free top-ups from Monday 11 July and demand a flat-fee each time a driver wants to use a rapid charger for 20 minutes.
