Greetings my name is Ian and I don't have an EV and always have been a confirmed petrolhead (Triumph Stag 3.5 V8) however with a love of all things technical I have been fascinated by the development of these cars.
Confession time: I must admit that I always thought that the Leaf was a curious vehicle and although cute and quirky was not my cup of tea, I think I was seduced by the Teslerati fan club and once drove an M3 to see what the fuss was all about.
I will own up to the fact that I have not driven a Leaf yet However, I am now totally convinced that this will be my next car.
I think I am drawn to the e+ versions as my wife (who I am still to convince) is very risk averse and range anxiety wouldn't help with keeping me out of the doghouse!
I am particularly drawn to the Leafs bi-directional battery and want to research this ability to integrate into our home power supply.
The first step on this journey will commence in early November when dear old Octopus will install our new Smart meter.
In the mean time I would be very pleased to hear from you seasoned owners on any tips I should have to help me avoid any pitfalls.
Many thanks
Ian (Ex petrol head (well much reduced anyway!)
