The short answer
How much is my Nissan Leaf worth?
Battery health is the biggest driver. Gen 1 packs degrade sooner, while the Gen 2 40 and 62 kWh packs hold up better, so a recent battery health report helps. The Leaf was the first-wave private hire EV, so a live plate from any UK council adds licensed-trade demand; lapsed plates are fine. Which generation you have matters too. Gen 1 still has used-EV demand at the right number, and a degraded pack is priced honestly rather than zeroed out, with export and battery-swap routes behind it. Gen 2 is the active fleet car and trades strongest because of remaining battery life and warranty. Private hire Leafs cover fewer miles than a diesel, so we price on battery, plate and body, not a mileage cap. A real valuer checks your reg by hand and sends a firm offer within 2 hours, free UK collection, same-day bank transfer, no buyer fees.
What we look for
Four things that shape your Leaf offer.
Licensing badge
A live private-hire plate from any UK council adds licensed-trade demand. Lapsed plates fine.
Generation
Gen 1 still has used-EV demand at the right price. Gen 2 with 40 or 62 kWh battery is the active private-hire fleet car. Both bought.
Mileage in context
Private-hire Leafs cover 80,000 to 160,000 miles, less than a diesel. We price on battery health, plate and body, not a mileage cap.

Common questions
Leaf-specific FAQs.
My Gen 1 Leaf has lost 30% battery capacity. Is it worthless?+
No. Battery degradation is normal and we price for it honestly upfront. A Gen 1 Leaf at 70-75% state-of-health still has used-PHV demand at the right number, plus continental export and grey-import battery-swap markets. Generalist instant-quote sites zero these out; we don't.
Do you buy Leafs out of London?+
Yes, free collection across mainland UK. Edinburgh, Nottingham, Brighton + Hove PHV fleet retirement is the biggest source; we run a Scotland route every 7-10 days and a Midlands + South Coast route weekly.
Is my PHV plate worth anything when I sell?+
A live PHV plate adds licensed-trade demand, typically £500-£1,500 depending on the issuing council and remaining plate validity.
I lost the charging cable, does that matter?+
It reduces the offer by the cost of a replacement Type 1 (Gen 1) or Type 2 (Gen 2) cable, typically £150-£250 trade. Tell us up-front so the offer is firm; if you find it before collection we'll add it back.
