Hello, new to the forum, but not new to forums about small cars, run a MINI forum called MiniTorque but have just stepped into Leaf and EV ownership for the first time.
Last week we snapped up a 2013 S with 24k on the clock for the unbelievably cheap (to me) sum of $7,495, mint condition all round aside from the cheap carmax hubcaps that had been added but apart from that can't fault it - looks, feels and even smells like a year old car.
Anyway, thanks to this forum I learned that I needed a late 2013 model which it is and already bought a few mods for it:
Next mods are window tints and vinyl wrap to promote our company as it's supposed to be our local promo and delivery vehicle but I can't stop driving it so it's now also going to be my commuter car.
Any tips, hints or must-do mods, fire'em on over as would love to hear what people are doing to their Leaf's.

- Correct Leaf (non-oem) hubcaps to replace the terrible carmax ones, $80 inc delivery was very reasonable
Seat extender for the drivers seat (thanks to the thread on here for that)
LeafSpy Pro and OBD
