We were spoilt with our current car. When we were looking, this car was immediately available because another motability customer cancelled at the last minute. He’d arranged for all the bells and whistles to be added to it so we got a much better spec car for the reduced advance payment we were prepared to pay. That’s not likely to happen this time so we’re having to adjust our expectations, unless we find £3000 just lying around lol. And, unfortunately, we’re not allowed to keep this car any longer
Anyone who was wondering, a motability car is not free. The mobility element of my PiP is taken away and a good proportion of the cars require an advance payment of anything up to £6,500. That’s not to say I’m ungrateful as it’s a great scheme that makes cars accessible for those who need it, but it’s not something for nothing
