John come on!  Nissan's own terms and conditions has no sway or relationship to the state grants. Even if it did, (it definitely doesn't) the NTA grants are not consumer related.

I'm not reading all that Ermy.If ya don't want 20K off the NTA that's fair enough.

Did you ring around the Dealers ans see if the Motor you want is available or how long the waiting list is .

Leafs are readily available according to the dealer I spoke to in Windsor Bray.

[U Wha]

Just spoke to NTA and there is nothing in pipeline for the previous WAV grants. May happen in second half of year.

Probably waiting to see what the take up is with eGrants.

At those prices you'd still need to be putting 20k+ of your own hard earned to get one.

Agree and think it might be best to wait and see how it pans out over next few months

Absolutely, when i have to change next year it's probably gonna cost me 9-10k to replace my current 2011 Prius for a similar 2015/2016 Prius which will only get me 3-4 years whereas if i financed 10k+ the10k which i've already saved, i could get a Leaf that could (possibly) get me 10yrs,
If the car lasted that long it would bring me up to 67 yrs young....be time to move to Lanzarote then!!

Sort of Counterproductive to offer a Grant to import a part worn Diesel WAV and at the same time offer a Grant for the same electric vehicle .Looks like the Dirty diesel import grant might be gone .

A new barrier :

Could you get something with enough range for 20K  What are you 120 km round trip in and out ?

It's not illegal what I'm thinking AFAIK.The prices listed on all the car dealer sites are for a private customer who can avail of the 5000 SEAI grant that's due to expire this year.Taxis are no longer allowed to get it.

The bigger 62kw leaf isnt listed on the NTA or eligible vehicles and isn't on the SEAI list either. Probably would be acceptable but best to check first.

Not much choice. The Renault Zoe is on that list.  Looks tiny!
