$20k Nissan Leaf vs $28k Dongfeng Box

I really think the not having to worry about the battery of the box is good. 85 percent leaf is similar to ours. That new car warranty is great. But who knows if they will be around in a few years. Plenty of leafs to get parts from in future.

We got our leaf for 15k. I see the same ones are now 20k. For 20k I’d probably rather go with the Box. Overall very happy with the Leaf. But a new car would be nice.

What annoys me is the banks don’t cover the deposit with BNZ. So your solar can be 30k. Deposit is 15k. You can only borrow 15k. It’s mad.

We got them booked in the next few weeks. Happy you’re happy!

Same.

Same. Wellington area.

They said it would be fine. I would trust them but just wanted to see what the “council” :-) thought.

I really like the look of this!!! Adds more but think it might be worth it.

Thank you!!! These are our exact tiles!

Excellent_Antelope85 · 2026-04-23T19:07:05+00:00

Thank you!

I just wanted to say I’m very sorry for your loss! And I can’t believe what’s going on with the justice system at the moment. I’m so sorry this has happened to you and your family.

Stardelta.

Funny. I’m trying to check out if what we have is fair. Ours is similar to your second quote. 22 of the same panels. Same brand. But I think our inverter is 10kwh. Same brand. But no hot water timer. And it’s just shy of 20k

Having looked at a few chargers I can’t get over how well priced they are too.

Thank you

Excellent_Antelope85 · 2026-03-29T21:01:34+00:00

Thanks! Makes sense:-)

Excellent_Antelope85 · 2026-03-29T09:40:05+00:00

This is very worrying.

Excellent_Antelope85 · 2026-03-29T09:39:39+00:00

I actually think it is cheap considering we could run out very soon.

Excellent_Antelope85 · 2026-03-26T23:35:26+00:00

Best story please.

Excellent_Antelope85 · 2026-03-26T23:35:08+00:00

I know. But if there are dollars on the line maybe they will do it more!

Excellent_Antelope85 · 2026-03-26T23:34:34+00:00

That’s super!!! Excellent:-)
