Benefits of joining the car scheme

-

if you choose a car, all this is included: A new car of your choice every three years You get a brand-new car every three years. Motability will contact you a few months before your lease expires, and if you decide to continue with Motability you can choose a car for your next three-year contract (provided you are still eligible). Insurance The worry-free package provides similar cover to what you would expect under a fully comprehens­ive insurance policy. You can still lease a car even if you don’t drive, you simply nominate two drivers who can drive on your behalf. and if you decide to leave Motability at a later stage, you can request a letter confirming your claims history to take to your new insurer. Servicing and maintenanc­e all of your regular servicing and maintenanc­e is included and taken care of by your dealer. so you’ll have no unexpected repair bills with your Motability car.

Annual car tax When you take delivery of your car it will already be taxed for the first year. if you live in Great britain or Northern ireland we will arrange for your car to be taxed each year throughout your lease (unless you have chosen to pay tax privately). Replacemen­t tyres fitted by Kwik Fit For no extra cost Kwik Fit will replace tyres worn or damaged by normal use. it also provides a mobile service so your tyres can be replaced for no extra cost at your home or work. Window and windscreen repair or replacemen­t should anything happen to your windows or windscreen, repair and replacemen­t are included in the lease. 60,000 mileage allowance over three years You get 60,000 mileage allowance over three years with cars. however, if the total mileage is higher than the allowance when you return the car, there is a charge of 5p for every additional mile. Many adaptation­s at no extra cost if you need adaptation­s to make your car easier, safer or simply more comfortabl­e to use, you’ll be pleased to know that many of the most popular ones are now available at no additional cost.
