We are really pleased with the car so far, the staff (Dan & Reece) were great. I have had hybrid company cars in the past, but this is our first 100% electric vehicle. We bought the car without going there to see it which was a mild concern, but the photos and spec were bang on. A few small negatives were the delivery cost (we live 120 miles away and I was unable to drive after a knee op) it was quoted at £322, so we decided to collect. We also had to order a 3 pin home charger cable (not included with the car) this was an extra £149, it arrived okay but had a broken plug, we reported this and received a refund. All that said, if you are looking to “go electric” we would definitely recommend Drive Green.

Thanks for your feedback Paul. Our apologies for any problem with your 3-pin charging lead, which we will of course be happy to replace for you. We hope you are enjoying your Nissan Leaf and you know how to reach us if we can be of any further assistance.
I'm really enjoying the car so far. The staff were really attentive - I had to switch the car insurance over from the old one to the new one and they were happy giving me time and space to do that. One small negative was that they spelt my name wrong so I had to call the DVLA to update them and sort it out. I'd still give them 5 stars though because it was an honest mistake.

Thanks you for reviewing Daff - it is always really helpful, and great to hear you are enojying your i3 - a fantastic car.
The sales people were very good - they were very knowledgeable when it came to EV's and were happy to answer any questions we had. The only thing I was disappointed with was we made an appointment to view the car but when we got there it hadn't been cleaned and wasn't ready to look at. I was happy with my experience though.

Drive Green from Drive Green in response to Very knowledgeable about EV's
A quarter of our cars sell to eager customers before they are fully prepped and ready to leave the forecourt. when a customer is keen to view they are welcome to view the car before it is fully ready although we do prefer cars to be fully prepared and ready for sale before they are viewed. Our experience with customers has shown it is importnat to let customers view the cars as soon as they want, so as to avoid teh regular dissapointment that occurs when someone else buys the car they want ahead of it being ready. We are glad you are otherwise pleased with you experience, but we will bear your feed back in mind.
I really like the car - we did have a problem with the wishbones so we got it fixed at a local garage - Drive Green were very apologetic and said they would refund the costs. I test drove it the week before on my own - they don't pressure you to buy and I was given the freedom to make my own mind up. We bought a Renault a year prior from them - we decided to go back and trade it in because we needed something bigger and they gave us a good price for our part ex. I found them very pleasant to speak to, and when we picked the car up it was clean and tidy. It was a good experience. 5 stars.

Thanks Lucy for your feedback and apologies for the wishbone issue with your new car, and hopefully we managed to resolve it quickly for you. If we can be of any further or future assistance you know where we are.
They are very local to us so we decided to pop in because we fancied an EV and we weren't disappointed. The staff explained the features of the EV in detail which helped me to make a decision. I'll give them 4 stars though because the aftersales could be slightly better - I tried to contact them and my calls weren't returned.

Glad we were able to help, and apologies for any delay from the team in replying to you, but at the moment we are incredibly busy, and that can cause some delays in replying. If we can be of any help please do get back in touch, and we now have a live chat, as well as an overflow call handling service to help with times when the team are super busy.
I've done a fair few miles in the car so far, I'm very happy with it. The sales staff were good and were quick to explain the features of the EV in detail, I had a couple of test drives to really get a feel for the car which I was pleased with. We have to replace my wife's car at some point and we'd definitely consider going back to Drive Green is we were looking for another EV.
