Taking to TikTok, user @d22…nav uploaded a video showing this strange 2011 Nissan Leaf and also revealed its price – £19,000.
The car was sold with 17,960km on the clock – although you’ll find a regular model of the same age and mileage costs approximately £6,700 on AutoTrader.
The owner had removed the passenger seat to make more room for the coffin.
He also installed bigger windows so the coffin could be seen from outside the car.
The 2011 Nissan Leaf was sold on Facebook Market, and its owner wrote in the ad description: “If you see the ad, it’s for sale.
“For all the fools out there who have left ridiculous messages – no, you don’t get a free body with it.
“I would not be seen dead in it’ is not a new line, and any more rude or ridiculous comments will be ignored.
“Now for details – rare, fully-electric Nissan Leaf hearse, a little bit Marmite but fits a need in your funeral business and allows you to offer a Green option.”
The video has gone viral on TikTok with more than 114,000 views and 170 comments.
Most of the people in the comments joked about the car.
One said: “Nissan grief, haha.”
Another said: “If I die and am put in a leaf, I’m coming back from the dead.”
A third pointed out: “Looks like a lettuce sandwich.”
