You can also apply for a wheelchair car if you are an eligible passenger but don't drive yourself, parents or guardians ca apply on behalf of a child who is receiving an award so long as the proposed drivers don't have any serious driving convictions, endorsements or disqualifications within five years of applying. There are also restrictions referring to those drivers who are under 25 or don't yet hold fulldriving licenses. As well as providing money and help with buying or leasing a vehicle, Motability is also able to provide grants for driving lessons.
Motability has a choice of assistance schemes which it is able to provide when it comes to what they can do to assist you in getting a car:
You can get a new car on a three year contract hire agreement.
A new or used car on hire purchase over a period of two to five years.
A new or used electric wheelchair or mobility scooter on HP over one to 3 years.
The most popular plan to be taken up is the opportunity to contract hire the car for three years. This scheme offers customers a new car from a list of approved suppliers on a three year lease, all maintenance and servicing costs are covered, including comprehensive insurance and breakdown assistance from the RAC.
If you aren't going to drive the car yourself then you can apply as a passenger and have two other people nominated as drivers. You can also apply if you have a child over the age of three who is in recept of the DLA high rate mobility component.
