I like to buy my cars outright. Although I'd like an EV (new, cool apart from evangelists who think there is only one option) I am concerned that the resale value of 1st generation EV's may be worse than a petrol equivalent (even though there is no future in petrol, the 2ndgen EV's might wipe the current crops value). From an ecological perspective I think the best option is to carry on buying 2nd hand petrol cars until the next gen EV's are here or have been replaced by Hydrogen fuel cells.
I guess I could hire purchase/lease an EV to offset the potential redundancy of 1st gen EV as was stated in a similar thread a couple of weeks ago but my mileage is erratic and rural and no garage so not the best guarantee for maintaining a vehicle in it's finest shape.
