Motability Schemes
We are able to offer three ways to help with your mobility. Either Motability
New Car Contract Hire Scheme or Motability New Car Hire Purchase Plan
in exchange for all, or part, of the Higher Rate Mobility Component of the
Disability Living Allowance. Or as a registered disabled person, you can
also purchase selected new cars outright at a favourable discount on our
Mobility Plan.
1. Motability New Car Contract Hire Scheme
This low-cost package is easily the most popular in the Motability Scheme.
All you have to do is pay an Advance Payment (if applicable) and then in
exchange for your Allowance you can get a brand new car for 3 years. Your
car will be fully maintained, serviced and insured for the 3-year period. You
can travel up to 15,000 miles a year, without an excess mileage charge and
all you have to pay for is your fuel and oil top-ups. When the 3-year period is over
you simply return your car and choose a new one!
2. Motability New Car Hire Purchase Plan
We also offers a favourable discount on a wide range of vehicles that can
be purchased using all or part of your Allowance. The length of a Hire
Purchase Agreement is 4 or 5 years and at the end of the period the car is
yours to keep.
3. Mobility Plan
If you're registered disabled and don't qualify for Motability assistance then
you will be able to take advantage of our favourable discounts and
purchase many new cars outright.
