EV dreamers (opposite of bargains)

ELM327

Here's an idea for a thread, lets see if it takes off. Theres an equivalent in the main motors forum for ICE cars.


Dreamers.


Overpriced EV for sale currently. I'll start with this:
https://www.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/kia-soul-electric-high-spec-low-mileage-here-a/22866095


The old model Kia Soul, with similar range and battery (and chademo) to the leaf 30. For sale for €30k, when the new model on 201 plates is similar priced with much better everything!

Yes I think this thread would be filled with teslas in Ireland very quickly!

Almost €40k for a medium range second hand Nissan Leaf from last year? Even if it was brand new, that would be thousands and thousands too much. Decent car and all if you don't need much fast charging, but for that money you could have a long range much more modern brand new car like a Kia eNiro. Or for a few grand more you'd have a brand new Tesla Model 3.

That link is to a new 62kw Leaf

ELM327

It is but it's too expensive still. You could bring in a 2019 M3 SR+ for that 40k

unkel

It says 2019 in the ad. But yeah, it looks like that's a mistake and they mean a new car. Not bad for about €32k-33k, but for nearly EUR40k it's insane money.

No wonder this Leaf without a battery :eek: with an asking price of EUR2,600 is not selling. Worth no more than a grand in my book. Maybe a bit more for someone looking for a specific expensive part they can't get elsewhere who doesn't mind further parting the car out. Unmarried fellas only need apply :pac:

Linky


Then the also not selling Renault Fluence ZE for EUR3,600

Linky

I like these cars. I have a weakness for them. Maybe because they remind me of the idealistic but flawed and thus failed plans from better place. With the claimed EUR49 a month battery lease (is it even that low?), I wouldn't even pay a grand for it. Without lease it would be worth close to the asking price alright. Ideal second family car for someone who only needs a very short range (no more than 50-60km in winter) and would never need to fast charge...

That leaf could be interesting to get to that battery crowd in the Netherlands. Great basic platform of a car (albeit that year wouldn't have a heat pump)

Get the car over there and pay at least €5k for the install of a battery? That will then have no warranty? I don't think so. Much better idea to just get a Leaf with a battery here. €7k for a 2015 Leaf with the newer battery chemistry as posted by myself in the bargains thread.

2019 Ioniq for a shade under €31k. Dream on Kearys. UK reg, but without any of the benefits (actually i'd value it cheaper given it's stuck in miles rather than kilometers)

This 2017 Ioniq. 100k km on it, and looking for €23k!

Kearys seem be dreaming all over the shop. Who in their right mind would pay over €16k for an out of manufacturer's warranty 2016 low spec Leaf when for just a few grand more you can have a high spec 2017 Ioniq with 2 years bumper to bumper warranty left?

There's now a '19 Ioniq on there available for over €6k less :eek:.

Guy:Incognito

Would screenshots be better? (hosted on a 3rd party site maybe if its clogging boards otherwise) . Gets very frustrating in threads full of links where 99% of them just lead to the "sorry, this car is sold/removed/etc"

Ah, yours (your missus') I see!

That's a reasonable asking price for a 2019 car. You can of course buy a 2017 for another 5k less, but that's not a huge saving for a car 2 years older. Black is a nice colour on them in the flesh and the wrap and tint make it even better

The next owner is going to get a lot of EV for their money. Ioniq EV (28kWh) is an excellent car

What is she getting next?

Diesel Duster .

We're not sure for now, few things happening at present......I'd say she'd nearly take your Model S though if you'd take a monkey profit for it?

Sure he was looking for EUR120k for that car a few months ago. Wonder why it hasn't sold

Ah yes, the rare 3.0 litre model X.

€8k sales markup. Well done Mullingar Nissan

unkel

They've taken EUR500 off the asking price. They're gonna have to do the same many more times before anyone buys it

ELM327

I mean, you'll always lose on a trade in and there's always a mark up. But 8k is too much!

unkel

And how about a EUR42,400 Leaf - that's almost Tesla money

If that was delivered to my front door by Amanda Seyfried and Laura Prepon engaged in a romantic and scantily clad embrace, I'd still prefer a Tesla at that price.

"Price includes €5000 SEAI grant deduction for private individuals."

and what about the other 5k for VRT rebate?

The vrt rebate is included, Business buyers don't get the seai grant so if a business bought it it would be 5k more.

The garage that I got my eNiro from is also a Nissan one, so ended up getting details on the leaf 62 as well and i think it was actually more than the eNiro for the high spec one.

Could probably get a 2016 90D from Tesla with warranty for ~48k into Ireland. Might be white, or might be pre facelift, but you'd be talking around that.

2017 75 (not dual as his ad indicates) are around 45k into Ireland. Knock ~2-3k off for warranty (think that's usually about the difference) is around 42k. Convenience of being in Ireland... add 1k. So... vs a CPO, 43k maybe?

If I were selling my 2016 S90D facelift , same color as his but the black interior, I'd be looking at a similar price to his asking.


That's how off his price is.

Hey at least he isn't still looking for €52,500.

It does however have "motor". An important thing to specify in a car ad.

Year old Niro for €1k ? less than I was new last year. €37900

Judging by the video title they had it for sale back in December at 39900.

2019 Model 3 with 16,000 km done.
