Dealer LOSES Β£3,852 on a Nissan Leaf β Then the LinkedIn EV Experts Make FOOLS of Themselves!
#NissanLeaf #UsedElectricCars #EVBattery
A UK motor dealer LOSES Β£3,852 selling a Β£6,995 Nissan Leaf β and when I expose what happened, the LinkedIn EV experts come out in force, declaring it a NON-STORY, questioning the dealer's decisions and even disputing the financial loss!
One commenter reckons the garage should have sold the faulty Nissan Leaf for Β£200 and been better off. Another claims the dealer only lost Β£500. Others dismiss the entire account as nonsense.
But what do the actual figures show?
Chops Garage purchased a 2021 Nissan Leaf from BCA for Β£4,677.95, complete with an AVILOO battery State of Health certificate showing 85% and a BCA Assured EV/Hybrid report.
When the battery developed serious problems, the dealer contacted BCA, but the claim was rejected. Nissan also declined warranty assistance, as explained in Chops Garage's original documentary.
The garage then paid Β£1,140 for a localised battery repair at Cleveley EV, plus Β£300 transport.
The car was subsequently prepared and sold to a private customer for Β£6,995.
Then the battery failed AGAIN.
A replacement battery cost another Β£3,600, plus Β£125 transport.
By the end of the transaction, the dealer reported a NET LOSS of Β£3,852.10.
And yet some LinkedIn contributors insist this isn't a story worth reporting.
In this documentary, I examine their actual comments, including:
John Arnold: "They could have sold it for Β£200 and been better off."
Phil Parsons: "He hasn't lost Β£3,800. He has lost about 500 quid, what are you jibbering on about?"
Jaap van den Hoek: "A BS story indeed."
Shane Barber: "A rookie mistake by an 'experienced motor trader'."
I examine the figures, explain the actual sequence of events and show why hindsight is no substitute for understanding how used-car retailing works.
More importantly, I ask why a vehicle purchased with battery-health documentation could subsequently require thousands of pounds in battery repairs.
This isn't an argument that every EV has a defective battery. It's a documented example of the substantial financial exposure that can arise when a used EV develops a serious battery fault.
And it's a warning that deserves to be discussed, not dismissed.
