I borrowed the 40w. Launch model Leaf (for a Day) which has a range of around 240 miles, and I took it on a 104 mile each way trip down the the M4 to Cardiff , and back, and just to be safe, I gave it a short 45 minute boost /top up charge at Magor Services , on the way back.

As I understand it, If you buy a Leaf, but then need a car for a longer journey, Nissan guarantee to lend you a petrol or diesel car, for up to 14 day’s, free of charge during the first 3 years .

I think that electric is the future, but it will take a few years yet for everyone to get on board, and in the meantime i will enjoy 4 cylinders of VW?
