Looks like about $7500 for a Nissan Leaf with some miles on it.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

Update: Bidding has ended on all three. The 2012 was the only one that sold. It only had 16k miles on it and it sold for $6,600. I guess no one wanted the first one and the last one didn’t meet the reserve. It only got up to $5,100.

Could be good deals as long as they don’t need new batteries or are eligible for a free replacement through Nissan if they do.

I do like light blue upper models with the tan interior, like this:

A lot of thought has gone into those cars, even if they aren’t the nicest things to look at.

Someone needs to make a kit to drop in a small crate motor.

I guess it would need a lot with drive line components, fuel system, electrical system changes, in addition to the structure mods. But it just seems like a great opportunity going to waste for cheap cars with only 30 or 40 thousand miles on them.

4+ years and over 44,000 miles and nary a drop of gas. If the range works for you, they are unbeatable.

From what I understand, their batteries lose range pretty quick

I’m only now seeing this post. Someone should ship these to Europe. I’m seeing prices here that are twice as high.
