Mobility Scooter Scheme

Buying Motability Cars in the UK
Motability cars are part of a scheme in the United Kingdom which helps people who receive the higher rate of disability living allowance or the war pensioners' motibility supplement to buy new or used cars using their allowance. Wheelchairs and scooters can also be purchased under the same scheme.
Buying a car using this scheme allows eligible customers to take advantage of payment options that are otherwise unavailable. Motability cars can either be bought or hired at special rates from supporting dealerships.
The plans available to eligible customers fall into one of two categories. A contract hire scheme allows a customer to use their motability allowance to lease a motability car at low cost, normally for a duration of three years. During that time the customer is only required to pay for fuel and oil. At the end of the duration the car is simply returned and a new contract can be taken out. The other option is hire purchase. These plans tend to run for four or five years and at the end of that duration the car is fully owned by the customer.
When cars are hired under the motability scheme the customer can also name two additional drivers without incurring any further cost. The option to add a third can be purchased for a little extra. The vehicle is taxed and insured for the duration of the contract, tyres and windscreen replacement is included as well as breakdown assistance. Hire purchase contracts are slightly different in that they only cover the vehicle its self. The customer is responsible for agreeing the final price, arranging insurance, break down cover, tax disc and servicing & repairs.
In recent years the features of the scheme have been improving, the latest additions include a ‘fair wear and tear' policy. This covers any repairs which are required after three years due to usage and minor damage caused by a wheelchair or other mobility aid. The mileage allowance has been steadily increased and currently allows up to 60,000 for a three year agreement and up to 100,000 miles for a five year wheelchair accessible vehicle agreement.
