What People Are Saying About Buying Electric Cars from Eco Cars
05 August 2018
Excellent service from Eco cars. From an initial quick Facebook message it took no time for Jonathan to find the car we were looking for. He was completely open an honest about where the car was coming from, the condition it was in and most importantly pricing. No need to haggle like a normal used car salesman just here's what it costs and why. Car was delivered by James and was exactly as advertised. James was also very knowledgeable and walked us through all the features of the car to make sure we were happy. Would recommend Eco cars to anyone, wish I had known about them before buying my first EV

Excellent personal service - takes the worry out of EV purchase From first email contact and subsequent telephone call Jonathan and the team have been absolutely brilliant! I now have my first EV which is in A1 condition, exactly what I was looking for, on budget and was delivered to my house!! No high pressure sales, just friendly well informed advice. I can fully recommend eco cars and I'll be using them again for my next EV.

We have never bought a car via a third party before. Jonathan and James made it all very easy. We told Jonathan what we thought we wanted. He confirmed we were thinking along the right lines and within a few days we were picking up our new Nissan Leaf from James in Hinckley. We are delighted with the car and have been very impressed with the excellent customer service that Jonathan and James have provided.

Very good way to buy a new type of car Jonathan obtained a 3-year old Nissan Leaf for us at an auction and arranged for it to be delivered to the door. We had never bought a car in this way before but, having been recommended to us by a friend and seen online how he does business, we had confidence in Jonathan. An initial telephone conversation was very informative and established that our thinking in this new world of EVs was on the right lines, and we gave Jonathan our requirements. The car we received was exactly as had been described to us, in very good condition. We have been driving it now for two weeks and are confident we made the right choice. Jonathan is a busy, much traveled man yet we found him responsive and with an attention to detail. We like his business model of being up-front and transparent about where our money goes. We would buy from Eco Cars again

We were so happy with the Nissan Leaf Jonathan sourced for us in Oct 2015, and with the service he provided, that we came back to him in June 2018 to get us another newer Leaf! Jonathan has a great knowledge of electric cars, a fantastic network of contacts throughout the UK and he takes the time and trouble to find exactly the right vehicle for you and arrange for its safe transport home to Orkney. We much appreciated his patience and his advice on which vehicle was suitable and which were going at a fair price. If you are looking for an electric car he's your man!

Jonathan is so thorough and enthusiastic about EVs, and sourced us a lovely one that had only done 5K mileage. He helped me to change from driving manual cars to automatic, and gave us such clear information. He has a well deserved excellent reputation here in Orkney for his work with EVs and the infrastructure to support them. My husband hasn’t enjoyed driving for the past 40 years, but has just done it when he has to. Imagine my surprise when he arrived back from a drive this evening to announce “I like driving that car!” and now he’s looking up various settings and working out how to use them. Magic!

Just Brilliant Jonathan again has delivered! I have always been happy to give friends Jonathan's details, but this time I needed a car for my son who is learning to drive. He didn't let me down, we now have a brilliant little runaround, ideal first car a Hyundai i10. (teen now saving like mad to buy his next car from Jonathan but this time an ev!). My hubby extremely happy as he has a fishing vehicle until our son passes his test! Smooth and informative service and a great price. If I could I would give you 10 stars not just 5!

We had our first EV via Jonathan at Eco-cars in March 2015. He took time to answer all our questions and sourced us a 2nd hand Nissan Leaf in very good condition which we have been pleased with and still use. Recently I found myself needing a replacement for my work vehicle and wanted something with 4x4 capability but with an electric dimension. Jonathan again provided the information necessary to make a decision and subsequently sourced a 2nd hand Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV with a low mileage and in good condition which I am very pleased with. Jonathan provides an excellent service and has made our last two acquisitions really easy and trouble free.

14/01/21 Jonathan was fantastic throughout the purchase of my Kia Soul EV, from the initial contact, through to purchasing and liaising with the car transporter to pick up and deliver the car to my door. His openness throughout really put me at ease with the purchase over distance. He's way up north, I am on the South Coast and the car was in the East Midlands. I have no hesitation recommending him to anyone purchasing an EV. Thank you JP!
