AI Market Summary

Battery has likely lost 10–15% capacity by now; check real-world range on test drive and request full diagnostic from Nissan dealer before committing.
Strong market demand and steady price growth suggest sound value, though €12,500 median sits at upper range for 6-year-old EV with typical mileage wear.
12V auxiliary battery and brake fluid degradation are overlooked costs—confirm service history shows brake fluid flushes every 2–3 years, or budget for both replacements soon.
Verify charging cable, home-charging setup compatibility, and battery health report (Nissan Leaf app or Carwow/EVscan tool) before purchase; degradation varies widely by owner habits.
NI import saves €217 before VRT applies on top; factor in full registration costs versus Republic dealer stock with local warranty peace of mind.
