I would not hesitate to use you when i buy my next EV. Keep up the good work

@garethwalker3446 4 месяца назад

As people have commented not having the car serviced will invalidate the warranty. More importantly on my Kona ev the fourth year service is VERY EXPENSIVE at over £800. Apparently the coolant needs changing and is expensive. I have never seen this mentioned elsewhere, and it is something that people should be made aware of. I was very put out when I found out. So much for inexpensive servicing.

Looks a bargain if your mileage usage profile fits. I suppose where you are it is very suitable, unless you make regular ferry crossings.

@alexanderirwin7271 4 месяца назад

There are some cracking SH deals on EVs at the moment. My Zoe had lost battery capacity but I have managed to get the range up from 160 miles using eco mode and B mode now an easy 195 give or take a mile or 2 using normal mode and very little B mode. By a deep discharge of the battery

@afitzsimons 4 месяца назад

Try claiming on the battery warranty if you don't have service history including the important AC check.

@yellownev 4 месяца назад

Nice extras …. Very few have the heated seats and steering wheels. A bonus the tow bar for a bike rack Been watching the dealers near me and they’ve all ( rapid charge Zoe’s) gone up 1k since Christmas ?

@dmn1000000 4 месяца назад

GT Line+ has heated seats and steering wheel but GT Line models needed to be specced with the winter pack to get it. Very few GT lines were because most ZE50s were bought in bulk by car rental and subscription companies like the now defunct Onto.

@alexdalgleish1061 4 месяца назад

Please keep releasing vids like these instead of live streams. Are all 50 kwh Zoes going to have CCS or do you need to look for something else on the listing.

@andytunnicliffe7223 4 месяца назад

Not all ze50’s have CCS. It comes as an option. Check before you buy.

@JonathanPorterfield 4 месяца назад

No way of knowing other than asking to see the charge port , or if the listing states '50kW' ( max charge speed) as well as 50kWh ( battery size) , then 50kW means the max charge speed on DC so it 'should' have CCS , but always best to check the port 😉

@MikeDWinter 4 месяца назад

ZE50 without CCS has a blanking plate with two ‘+’ symbols embossed on it where the pins underneath would be. The CCS equipped cars have a plain flap. Helps if you get a pic of the charge port with the CCS flap closed.

@decimal1815 4 месяца назад

I enjoy the livestream videos too, but perhaps a summary of what is available at auction houses is a good compromise. I'm particularly interested in the lower end of the market as there are so few videos about "bargain" or good value used EVs compared to news about the latest £30k+ new offerings. This is probably the busiest end of the used market right now too..

Why can't you tow a trailer? I have a towbar on my i30. I have a bike carrier that clips onto it. I also have a 350kg capacity trailer, and I've also used the towbar to recover other vehicles that are stuck.

@JonathanPorterfield 4 месяца назад

'Officially' you cant , I have to be carefull what i say 😉

@brendanpells912 4 месяца назад

@@JonathanPorterfield No towbar should be fitted to a car unless it is type-approved and attaches to fixings in the chassis that the manufacturer has provided for that purpose. My understanding is that if a car has no towing capacity then it doesn't have those fixing points and no-one will make a towbar for it. I'm thinking of vehicles like the Ford Ka, and some variants of Nissan Micra.

@bennygustafsson9580 4 месяца назад

It's possible to tow with the Zoe - up to 750 kg - but only cars registered in Germany. I know of a man who imported his car to Norway from Germany and fitted his towbar before registered in Norway and that car was officially registered with towbar. He even bought a Twizy in Budapest and took the Twizy home with the Zoe!

@Adeleisha 4 месяца назад

My 2018 41kWh Zoe does 200+ miles on a full charge, even in winter (4.8-5+mpkwh). 157 for the 50kWh battery doesn’t sound too good - perhaps the AC refrigerant needs topping up, or there’s a leak somewhere?

@JonathanPorterfield 4 месяца назад

Great share! I would never buy a car without side-airbags, even my cheap 11 year old Toyota Aygo have them. I find it hard to believe that Renault could do this to the ZOE, side-airbags are not that expensive and they already use them in other cars - with great success.

@mbak7801 4 месяца назад

My ZOE 135 came with a DSL granny cable in a zip carry bag. The instructions are in French which makes me suspicious that it came with the car. Just saying.

@JonathanPorterfield 4 месяца назад

Renault kept changing their minds on when a 'granny cable' was included in Zoe , every 6 months or so it would change !

@MrBinabanana 4 месяца назад

Additionally, all ONTO Zoes were supplied to subscribers with a granny cable, so if your Zoe originated from there, the granny cable may have stayed with it.

Would it run on some sort of smelly liquid I need to specifically go out and buy? Or would it refill overnight like my phone? Does it shake and make noise in use? Price is just one factor when choosing a product, it is not always the most important.

Keep away from the Zoe, any car scoring Zero in Crash tests is not good! Especially as Renault are so proud of their previous high scores! I think the failure was side impact, ouch!

@JonathanPorterfield 4 месяца назад

Im happy to drive mine, as crash protection is still good compared to cars of 10 , 20 years ago. Yes the NCAP rules are tougher, but drivers still have the same type of accidents that have been around for decade's. This doesn't mean the Zoe is now a 'deathtrap' , but like i always say , we all have choices.
