Seems very good - just make sure that it is 20K per year and non-flex.
Definitely 20k per year :-)I'm just presuming its the non-flex. Will check today when I finally get to speak to the salesman to see if they will increase their part ex offer by £200 to cover the charge point cost.
Left message yesterday, no call back and just left another a few minutes ago.
If they increase then I will go for it.
My part ex is on its last legs and the thought of doing another winter commuting in it has made my mind up.
They increased my part ex. by £300 and its a personal lease so monthly cost covers everything.
Decided to go for it and paid a small deposit.
Went through finance form on the phone and salesman will get back to me this morning (which he hasn't so far) :-)
Had a bit of a wobble over colour last night.
Flame red is the only no cost option and its ok so chose that.
Wife and eldest daughter then said its looks a bit cheap and what about artic white.
I think white makes it look even uglier than it does already and its £250.
Then looked at the other colours which are £550 adding about £15 per month.
In the end decided not worth it and stick with red :-)
Also didn't realise there's 2 interior colour choices.
Going with the darker one. Got light colour in my present car and its a nightmare to keep clean.
Been told delivery is mid December.

But think this is the 24kw model but doesn't say.
Picking up my 30kw Acenta Wednesday. It was delayed from Christmas eve.
Dealer rang me today to confirm Wednesday and also say instead of the flat red mine will be the metallic red for no extra cost.
Hmm, think my original car wasn't going to be delivered this week but managed to source a metallic one. Then made to seem like they were being generous :-)
Don't mind the metallic red so no skin off my nose.

So whats the real world range scoop on the 30kW.... in mild conditions is 100 miles/charge a good bet now?
I got 89 miles in December with the 24kw version on my 7 day test drive last year (60 mile each way mix of A roads, A1 and city) so 100+ will be easily achievable in mild weather for the 30kw version. I reckon 120-130 just pootling around town.I will report back later in the week with initial range data :-)

just picked up a 2015 6.6 30kw leaf with 300 miles metallic grey Tekna with a few little extras (mats, solar, both cables) for £14k - outright purchase - ie no flex.
This has to be 24kv old battery leaf....or i think you ment £24,000. Edited by oilit on Thursday 24th December 20:41
or with 300miles on Nissan's testing leaf.

Just in case there are any Nissan sales people knocking about, on the bottom of my PH screen I have a tab of PH adverts for Leafs. Every so often one pops up, right colour, spec, and various other stuff, making it worth a bit of investigation.
So having taken a look at the PH ad, and then the dealer website, getting a bit effing hacked off on contacting dealer to find it's a Flex vehicle. Now realise that to mention it at the outset might just reduce the number of enquiries you get, but ffs the Flex issue is a complete red line in the sand. All the other stuff, colour, miles, age, spec, battery size, 3.3/6.6 charger, distance to travel to buy, even price is all of secondary consideration.
Just put if it's Flex or not in the fricking advert!

Interested to hear what people think would be a realistic current deal on a Leaf (bummed I missed the rush at the end of the last quarter, I gather some dealers were chucking silly deals to meet their targets)?
Could manage perfectly well with the 24kwh Leaf, but would like the 30, am looking at a very boggo PCP (basically want to spend the same on the monthly cost as I do on fuel a month, so circa £200), are people still getting really good deals out there?
Currently borrowing a basic Visio spec one and I'm really impressed.

I don't think you'll get near £200pm for a 30Kwh model (though a few pages back somebody posted that they bought a lightly used one for peanuts). Maybe check out the Zoe (quick google for 'zoe PCP deals' reveals a few options around the £3600 mark over 2 years), or consider a nearly new 24kwh lease around the £10k mark and financing via the banks, which should get sub £200pm over 4 years - and you'd have a car at the end of it (hopefully with a healthy & usable battery)?Could manage perfectly well with the 24kwh Leaf, but would like the 30, am looking at a very boggo PCP (basically want to spend the same on the monthly cost as I do on fuel a month, so circa £200), are people still getting really good deals out there?

You were pretty much right, although I'm not as far out as I thought I might be. Best I could get out of my local dealer on a 30kwh Accenta was down to around 19k and roughly (didn't do exact figures, waiting until after 4 day test drive) £272pcm. A 24kwh with similar levels of discount offered was pretty much bang on my £200pcm target to within £15-20.However Wilsons in Surrey (nowhere near me, but had a tip off) are doing a silly deal on a 30kwh, £600 deposit, only 5k a year mileage, but at £199 a month. Doubt my local dealer can beat it (they are a bit useless by reputation) but going to give them the chance before I go and have a day trip to Epsom.
