Electric van down under

I purchased one of these three weeks ago



A Nissan e-NV200, basically a Leaf van.

2014 model, ex Japan, 4,700 km, £13,000.

Done about 800 miles so far, in and around Christchurch NZ in connection with an underfloor heating business.

Mrs Caziques refers to it as a milk float, I think it's great - mostly due to the running costs.

1p a km if I charge up at night or weekends - 2.5p a km using day rate - 6.5p a km if I use one of two fast chargers in town.

Realistic usable range is around 60 miles.

The heated steering wheel is very handy these cold mornings.

The only issue is "range anxiety" (and I suppose the purchase price) - apart from those it's excellent.

Now, if anyone could tell me how to set the correct time as I can't find a user manual in English.

The Leaf arrives next week, Mrs Caziques is determined she's going to hate it!

I'm thinking of getting one of these at the moment.

Me too,just waiting to see what the UK government will give me for my 20 year old Merc Sprinter with their scrappage scheme.
