Used Electric Cars
The days of the G wiz electric type cars running around 35-40 miles at a maximum speed of 50 mph have long fizzled out (excuse the pun !) The latest range of electric cars are the Nissan leaf , the Mitsubishi I-Miev and Citroens C zero are the first of a new range of useable electric cars.
We are looking to offer used ex demo & ex lease vehicles, at a reduced cost over new, with the remaining new car warranty.
Why Electric Cars Make Sense
- Free road tax, on street parking and London drivers of electric cars are Congestion charge exempt
- The range on a full charge is around 100 miles
- £1.80 to charge from your own electrical socket (based on a Nissan Leaf charged over night on cheap rate electricity)
- Free fuel (if charged through solar panels)
- Cheaper maintenance costs (there is just one moving part)
- Good for the environment (with solar panels it is effectively emission free)
Extra Range
Nissan UK has plans in place (from Feb 2012) for all the major Motorway service areas to have a Nissan fast EV (electric vehicle) chargers that will fully charge your EV in around 30 minutes , just time for a coffee, bite to eat , and a toilet stop !

Free Fuel
We charge our Leaf by means of PV (solar photovoltaic) panels on our south facing roof.
The cost is around £6000 for the panels , and we look at these as buying our fuel for the leaf 'up front' and storing it on our roof.
The average petrol engined car over 15,000 miles a year will spend around £3800 so in 30,000 miles the panels will have paid for them selves ...and then you in real terms have FREE fuel for you EV ....for the life of the panels ( at year 25 they expect to loose around 5% of their efficiency )

Used Electric Cars For Sale
19/05/22 They are a keeper! My son bought his first EV from Eco cars. It was easy, they took all the hard work out of it. They are experts in EV. Good pre-purchase advice. Great after sales care. I will use them again without hesitation. They have an excellent reputation in EV circles, with good reason. If they don't know the answer to an EV question - they know someone who does.
