I found out this bit of info in the most hilarious and ‘fail’ fashion.
I ordered some magnetic signs off Vistaprint with our pharmacy logos on it, it arrived super fast and I was super keen to put it on only to discover that the signs won’t stick to the doors!
I was shocked to discover that the door panels and bonnet are made from aluminium! The sign stuck just fine to the roof meaning the roof is made from steel.
Hilarious that it’s the second Leaf I’ve owned and today I just found this out!
So I’ll have to get some vinyl printed to stick to the door instead.
I guess Nissan made the decision due to weight saving reasons and perhaps this added to the cost of the car initially.
