    Haven't sold a car privately before, hints welcome.

    How do you protect yourself against someone turning up to buy and then just driving it away, or smashing it?

    just out of interest, what would you say your range is now that it's recently dropped to 11 bars? 100 - 110 km in winter?

    The way I drive it, (like I stole it) about 100km I'd say. Someone with a lighter boot would still scrape out 110-120 in winter though I'd say. I live on a hill top too and do most of my driving in Derry which is a hilly city which doesn't help range in any EV.

    Good to know, would still cover me. I hope to be in the market for a Leaf soon, so I’ll be keeping an eye on yours. In the meantime, good luck with the sale

    Dont sell for a penny less than your advertised. You are too cheap as it is.

    Have you got many calls in total?

    Lol, everyone else told me I was too expensive!

    I've had 1 call and 4 emails. One contact was from the fella offering me €9.7m, one was just an early enquiry, 2 have asked to view.

    Do not agree for a cent less. This car is worth it every penny. I’d have had it advertised for 11k :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,453 ✭✭✭✭DrPhilG


    It's gone.

    Took a few hundred € less for it. Could have probably hard balled and stuck to €10k but they were a nice couple and I think it was a fair price.

    I had offered it to family for €9k so I'm glad they refused.

    Nice one Phil, well done. Goes to show how strong the Leaf holds its value now.

    Put the DL plates on my i3 REx this morning.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,999 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    Sorry, missed that!

    Well wear.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,999 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    I changed out my Chargemaster 32A Type 1 home charger as it was giving intermittent interruption during charging.

    Happened maybe 5% of the time I used it, usually grand but the odd time I'd check it with the Nissan App and see that it stopped charging and I'd have to go reset it and start again.

    It never tripped the RCBO, so assume there is a short or loose connection either in the unit itself or the plug which caused the interruption.

    I was wondering what it would be worth to sell, maybe someone with the knowledge could fix it easily enough?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 65,717 ✭✭✭✭unkel

    Describe it honestly, ask for €149 and see how much you'll get?

    But it should still be under warranty, unless you bought it second hand. Even if the "warranty" period has expired.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,999 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    Yip. Bought it secondhand.

    Just emailed Chargemaster, see if they might have an idea on it.

    Edit: fair play, got a reply in 5mins...they have people on night shift!
    Said they'll take the serial number, if its out of warranty their sales team might do me a deal as a Polar customer.

    So I will list it for sale here, but advertise it as faulty as it did error out occasionally.

    Now if you were a spark or know one, they might be able to see an issue with it and potentially you could get a well priced 32A charger with tethered lead.

    Asking €150

    Can post up photos later if any interest or provide them to your WhatsApp/Viber account.

    Thanks but too low, am thinking of sticking it up on the auction site, see what it fetches


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,453 ✭✭✭✭DrPhilG


    Not sure if you're on Facebook, but there is an Irish EV Owners buy and sell page. There have been folk there before both looking for and trying to sell granny leads, chargers etc.

    Phil, can you post a link, please?

    I've been on the Facebook page but can't see any Buy & Sell section.

    Thanks.

    Genuine BMW i3 cupholder for sale. Provides handy extra storage too. I'll get a photo up shortly but identical to this one. Perfect condition €60. Very easy to install.

    Just going to throw this in here:

    Renault are offering 0% finance on Zoe's.

    Was looking at importing a used from the UK but this makes it interesting.

    Leafspy compatible OBD Scanner for sale.

    €20 collected in Dublin 11.
    Can arrange postage if buyer requires.

    I used this on my 2014 Leaf using Leafspy on my android phone.
    I cannot confirm if this works with iOS but I can confirm it works with Android.

    Final week of my Tesla Model S being for private sale before it goes to a dealer and comes back on the market at a higher price.

    142 Tesla Model S 85 with Autopliot, 3rd row seats and under full warranty until Jan 2022 - €46k ono

    Full details and pics here


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,217 ✭✭✭✭ELM327


    Great price, good luck with the sale.
    About 6 months too early for me as I'm purchasing a new house but you will find a buyer. Don't sell it to a dealer (unless you really need the money quick) as trade price is probably low to mid 30's on an s85

    Lovely car, all the most desirable options too. Best of luck with the sale. Your initial asking prices were too high, but you were kinda caught out in the Tesla turmoil with the prices of new S dropping a lot. And it is hard to price a car where there are so few others for sale.

    Personally I'm on the fence about buying a 5 year old Model S. Within a year, you will be able to buy a brand new Model 3 with HW3 and full self driving for less money than that.

    I have to sell as I'm leaving the country, but dealers are offering in the low 40s so it's not too bad. No doubt they'll stick it back on the market in the high 40s!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,217 ✭✭✭✭ELM327


    If you've got a low 40's offer to be honest I'd jump at that from a dealer, much less hassle. I sold my Ioniq to a well known EV dealer. Could have gotten 1-2k more for a private sale but I value my time and hassle free sale better than 1-2k.

    I'll mind it for ya until you come back, and I'll not even charge you for it.

    Brand new, never unwrapped.
    A 10 metre long, Type 2, charging cable.
    Full 32A for max speed from home/public charge points.

    Rather meet up as this is heavy & costly to post but often between Limerick & Dublin.
    Not sure on the cost of these - guess €175 is a fair price?

    Brand new, never unwrapped.

    Not sold in the Republic as far as I can tell. In which case would MB dealers down here turn you away it if you wanted one serviced, do you suppose?

    A good few of those cars sold down here, you could ask garage Peterson in south side Dublin who services as they had at least 2 in and sold recently

    Talk about UK second hand EV prices on AutoTrader - they have gone mad in the last 6 months or so. Have a look yourself. Cheapest Ioniq GBP22k, cheapest i3 GBP16k, madness!

    I bought one of these a long time ago, and ended up not needing it.

    https://evonestop.co.uk/collections/adaptors/products/type-1-to-type-2-cable-adaptor-converter-16-32-amp-1-metre

    How much do you think I could get for it?

    Tbh, not sure if its 16A/32A or what length it is, its been in storage since I bought it!

    Offer it to Phil, I'm sure you'll get more than 20 for it. I paid €130 for one just a couple of months back

    I might be interested as I am getting a Type 2 car in a month or two, and my charger is a tethered one for a leaf (type 1). Is that the correct adapter?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,999 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    Yeah it should work ok for that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,999 ✭✭✭✭NIMAN


    I've popped it up on Adverts with an initial price of €90, to see if any interest.
