This week's EV bargain that I'm not buying

In a different market, you'll agree. But yes it is - and to be fair he has said that on multiple occasions. Used EV prices have gone up a lot in the intervening years. As has inflation. I have no issue with him advertising the car for more than he paid, what's the issue there? I'm actually considering buying that car if it's still there in 6-8 weeks.

Jaysus that's some hilarious markup all the same. Not a hope.

FFS lads, will ye get a grip of yourselves!!

I highly doubt a single one of you wouldn't be advertising your own cars at market value, no matter the price you paid for it. Stop being a bunch of a55hats. I don't consider the fluence to be a bargain at the ASKING price, but that doesn't mean it won't be a bargain for someone at the SALE price. This is one of those times where you just stay quiet and let others make up their own minds. Move on out of here and stop ruining the thread for everyone.

There is a big difference between commenting and ridiculing. If people don't think it's a bargain, they could ignore it. People will make up their own minds. No need to be filling the thread with ridicule and hostility. It's bad enough when we have pages upon pages without a listing. The last 2 pages are a joke.

It's also not advertised at 8k. It's up for €7299. 2k is also not market value, that's a ridiculous assertion and the car would be gone within a couple of hours, being battery owned. Prices rise and fall and while I personally believe that anything over 5k (same price as the other fluence on DD) is high, I'm not one to make a fuss, even if I think the listing doesn't belong here.

The other car is €2299 less, but has few details and nothing in the description. It's also most certianly battery rented and has more miles....plus it's boring white. I would argue they are evenly priced.....still not a bargain IMO, but far from the rip off some are suggesting here.

There are on 2 on DD. Let people make up their own minds. Report the ad if it doesn't belong here. If people begrudge the man for taking the opportunity to make a profit, that's their problem. If people pay the man for something he is selling, that's their choice. I say let them be.

The battery rental info Unkel posted is accurate and should be made known to boardsies. The seller should be posting it tbh. I wouldn't have bought the 2k car because it is a battery rental and I couldn't be bothered with the hassle, even though it would have been a handy car for us to own. Renault Banque won't always allow the lease to be bought out. It's hit and miss and so is a gamble. They have also been shown up to be nothing short of scammers, making it next to impossible to claim when the battery needs replacing, or a repair. Battery rental turned off most interested buyers, so it should be noted as it is almost a forgotten thing.
