I am interested mr butter face please

8k per annum, dynamique intens with no options (unless something like the Tech Runs is so good for the residuals it is cheaper to spec it with them)

lowest total cost to me over 24 and 36 months, assume I would want to walk at the end of the term

PM or post here, whichever you prefer

TIA

Get your local dealers to try 36m options as they are quite decent.

If anyone wants a specific ZOE quote just let me know your mileage and deposit and I can quote you inc battery hire.
Hi butteface, I could do with some pointers if possible.

I visited renault Cardiff yesteday for a potter around a zoe. Really liked it. They seemed to know their way around the car quite well, but we're hopeless when it came to explaining the purchase options etc to me. Quoted me £212 (inc battery) on a PCP of a dynamique intens with 7.5k allowance. They hadn't heard of the reduction in battery lease costs and didn't seem bothered about doing much more than giving me a take it or leave it price.

To be honest I only need a 6k allowance, and looking on the net, a sub £180 all in price seems doable. I'm not sure whether to try renault Cardiff again (may look desperate!) or find someone that wants my business.

OK butterface, here's what I've been offered.

10,000miles PCP, 7500mile battery lease 24months (would also consider 48) £164 a month delivered to my front door. On an Intens. Better that & I'll almost certainly order from you.

If I could get used a Twizy for £3k I'd go for that, but no chance it would appear.

Is that zero deposit from you too? And VAT included (is there even vat on a EV pcp)?

Hi Butterface, would like to know if you could do better than below before I pull the trigger. I live in the North East so obviously collection or delivery charges would have to be taken into account, cheers.

That's the same price I've been quoted for a 4 yr PCP but, with a 7.5k milage allowance. Also includes free servicing, breakdown road side assist, warranty and something else, can't remember...

Wow that's a good deal. Are Renault still providing the charging point FOC?

I'm really tempted by a Zoe myself, but need to run a 30a cable to the garage first!

That is correct.

Although they have asked if I'd mind a £250 deposit as it's a distance sale, which will bring the payments down

Watching this thread with baited breath.

Oh! Forgot to mention there was a used Twizzy (or possibly demo as it was dirty) at the same dealers today. Didn't see how much it cost but taken back by how small it was.

It would be cool if we could get say 5 or 10 potential purchasers together and approached a single dealer.

Pretty sure we'd get a fairly nice deal then - they would have our arm off!

I'd be interested in that too. Just trying to decide if it is worth paying the premium for a leaf?

Now SWMBO is getting cold feet, thinks I'm better off keeping the G1 Insight. Today is the day I planned to commit to a purchase too.

No idea, we've spoken about it for ages & said when a really good deal comes along we'll do it. IMO this is a really good deal. But the decision day comes & she changes her mind. Something to do with the car we have costing nothing each month.
