Hum, wonder why!?

Might be open to a low ball offer so

BigAl81

Ah jasus, never mind,

It's priced in Euro in the add, but at the end of the add it has "VRT TBA"

6 letters you don't want to see at the end of a car add :rolleyes:

VRt would be very low for that.
My 2016 S90D facelift was below 3k. If 3k is the barrier between you getting a Tesla or not then you shouldnt get one!

3k was exactly the barrier between me getting a Tesla or not about a year ago

€40k isn't great value for that Tesla imho, even if it included the VRT...

Hum, a 2016 with AutoPilot and 6 month dealer warranty.

The cheapest UK ones with AutoPilot are 2015 for 33.2 sterling which is 39k euro with no warranty.

Both would need VRT tho.

The one I linked is the cheapest 2016 AutoPilot one in the "british isles" as far as I can see by some margin.

Which imho does not by definition make it a bargain.

I'd love a model S as my next car, I certainly couldn't justify sinking 40k into a car, I usually spent at most 6k on whatever 150bhp+ diesel I can, however I do spent 2500e/year on fuel costs, so suddenly the likes of 25k on an EV doesn't sound the worst if I have that 25k saved in 10yrs on fuel costs. Assuming I could get a model S in a year or so for that sort of money would I be asking for trouble or not? I've zero interest in the likes of a leaf etc, even the model 3 doesn't really do it for me ha.

Vague details, high mileage, and there'll be a bit of vrt.

But a 2015 REx for €14k?

60Ah REx?

Wouldn't call that a bargain. Far from it.

I would be worried about those pictures. They are taken from a different site (look at the double set of icons).

Pity it's a gas guzzler with a moped engine

It looks fierce rough. Would it even make EUR9k? A car like that would suit me though, if it were BEV only and if it were extremely cheap.

User1998

The last one that was posted in here and was on Donedeal for €4k more is sold already. I think I’m heading to the auction today so I’l let you’s know how much it sells for if I go

Mileage is high , that mightnt be an issue if the battery is okay , could be a handy runabout for small entry price ..

That's been for sale at that price for weeks. Was it not mentioned in this thread before?

The €3.5k i-Miev sold a few days ago. Someone got a bargain there, probably paid under €3k for it. These fetch strong money in the UK (as all budget EVs do over there)

Did you go? If so how much did it go for, about €8k?

Outlander PHEV - not an awful lot over €9k landed on Irish plates

Nearly 300,000km on it in just 6 years :eek:.
2 litre petrol remember, trade sale only I'd reckon.

unkel

It's a private sale. MOT history looks good too. Japanese petrol engine should be very reliable, and it's a one owner car with full main dealer service history. Get some money off and you'll have one of the cheapest PHEV money can buy. And one with a decent electric range too. And get your €600 charge point subsidy.

If I were in the market for a cheap PHEV, I would. A GBP7k Outlander or a GBP6k Ampera. Also with a decent electric range.

cruizer101

Typically what would the electric only range be on something like that, its meant to be about 50km from new isn't it. Does they lose much over time?
I had been considering a leaf but do like the idea of the extra space this gives and not having to worry about range anxiety. I've 40km round trip commute so if it covered that it would be ideal.

Soarer

Doubt it'd do the 40km.
Probably 30 at a stretch.

SVE Leaf 40Kwh for €23K

https://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/nissan/leaf/fpa/201912145343033

am tempted but would have to shift my L24 and something about those red stickers makes me think there's something not mentioned in the add. I think it was up for €27.5K not so long ago https://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/nissan/leaf/fpa/201910093107534

I'd say her dad put them on after she crashed it, could be already repaired, a cat d, in need of some paint or else he just said feck this and got the mini she wanted in the first place.

jhegarty

Telsa UK site has it's Model S stock back.

I am going to start with an AP1 S70 for £33k.

Low millage and 4 year warranty.

Very nice but not particularly cheap if you put ELM327's car as a benchmark: facelift 2016 90D for GBP39k (granted, with only a little bit of Tesla warranty left, but might be enough to replace the MCU)
