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 or a wind turbine !)
- Cheaper maintenance costs (there is just one moving part)
- Good for the environment (with solar panels or wind turbine it is effectively emission free)
Extra Range
Ecotricity and Nissan UK has at all the major Motorway service areas Rapid Chargers that will fully charge your EV in around 20/30 minutes , just time for a coffee, bite to eat , and a toilet stop !
Click the video below to watch a road trip in a Mark 1 japan built Nissan leaf, (the UK built 24kwh leaf has better range, and the 30kwh leaf and 40kwh Leaf even more , up to 160 miles between charges) and how the rapid chargers work.

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 (in 2011), 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 )

18/11/19 No need for doubt, Eco-Cars will look after you! Let's face it: Buying a car is a real hassle - It's not so much about doing your research, finding what you want and then tracking one down, it's all the nonsense of car dealerships that gets my goat. Enter: Eco-Cars. Not only are you getting the same dealership-worthy vehicle, virtually directly from the manufacturer, but you're saving a fortune on whatever the salesman can rinse out of you. Jonathan finds a car to your liking, informs you how much it will cost him, adds his totally reasonable fee and delivery cost (£1 a mile on a flatbed) and bingo, you're sorted! It was admittedly a leap of faith for us to pay for the vehicle up front, but the cars are still under warranty and there's really little to go wrong in an EV anyway! Our Leaf arrived in good time, we were well-informed and updated by Alex the delivery man about when we would receive it and we ended up with a car we wanted at a much better price than the dealer! Definitely the future of buying cars - thank you!
Kieran, St Helens
