Hi folks, im new to the forum.
Ive never owned an EV although I am keen to pick one up. Due to an unexpected im thinking of expediting the process!
Ive come across a 2016 30kwh Leaf for sale. Its on 92k miles. Its been through mots since february 2017 and the mileage, while high, appears consistent. Its advertised for $8500 which is obviously pretty low for the 30kwh model.
Is this an unwise purchase? Ive been told the SOH is 85% but havent done much digging yet. Is there anything to watch out for with higher mileage examples? I wouldn't be looking to get anything with really low mileage but wondering if this is best to be avoided.
For what its worth, my commute is 17 miles each way, almost exclusively motorway and I do have off road parking.
Thanks in advance!
