A lonely Leaf. Passed a bungalow kitted out for electric car charging with two ice cars in the drive, no electric cars in sight.

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
I saw a Tesla Model S yesterday on the A1(M) and forgot until I saw this post!
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
Yes, seems to be.
Although we are not driving much at the moment, pretty much every time we go any significant distance in the car I'll spot a Model 3, sometimes more than one. The other day I spotted one in a dark metalic grey (simialr to the Silex Grey of the Xantia) which was a first in that colour. Looked quite nice but very understated, definitely not a "look at me" colour like a red Model 3!
Certainly much nicer than black or white, which seem to be the two most common Model 3 colours. I think the dark metalic grey really suits the Leaf too - one lives about mile up the road from me, and I think it would be my preferred colour of Leaf.

Of the 2018 Nissan Leaf Colours this is most likely "Gun Metallic"

Re: Electric Vehicles: What have you spotted?
Now this is a reasonably rare sight, maybe because they look just like a Golf.
Owner loves the car had it about a year 11,000 miles and paid less than £10 for fuel.
