In this section we dive into exploring whether you can purchase your Motability vehicle at the end of your agreement and the customisation options that are also available. Let's explore this in further details below:
No, you cannot directly buy your Motability car at the end of your lease. Since December 2023, Motability has no longer allowed customers to purchase their vehicles directly. However, there are alternative options to explore.
1. Lease another car through the Motability Scheme: You can choose a new vehicle that suits your needs and start a new three-year lease.
2. Extend your current lease: If your vehicle has low mileage or significant adaptations, you might be eligible to extend your lease for up to two additional years. During the extension, you’ll continue receiving all benefits from the worry-free lease package, including servicing, repairs, and MOT costs.
3. Return the car: If you decide not to lease another vehicle, you can return your car and have your mobility allowance reinstated.
Although you cannot purchase the vehicle directly from Motability, you can contact the dealership where you initially ordered the car. The dealership typically has the option to buy the car from Motability for their used car stock. If they choose to do so, they may agree to sell the car to you. To explore this option, contact the dealership’s Motability Specialist during the final months of your lease. They can inform you if Motability has published a purchase price for your car.
If none of these options work for you, returning the car is the final step, and you can use your mobility allowance as you see fit. These processes ensure flexibility while adhering to the rules of the Motability Scheme.
You can change your Motability car early, but there are specific conditions and costs associated with doing so. Early termination is not a standard right under the Motability Scheme, as lease agreements typically last for three to five years. However, changes are permitted if you have a valid reason.
While changing your Motability car early is possible, it requires valid reasons and incurs costs, including a £250 administration fee. Refunds are available on a pro-rata basis for Advance Payments, but optional extras are excluded. Exploring solutions like adaptations or additional drivers may help avoid early termination. Repeated cancellations can impact future eligibility for the Scheme. For further information on this, please contact our friendly team in Epsom today.
Yes, you can cancel your Motability car order, but certain conditions and considerations apply. While you can cancel your Motability car order, there are associated fees and potential implications.
Contact your dealer or supplier for pre-delivery cancellations and Motability customer services for lease terminations. Ensure you have a valid reason and evaluate all alternatives before deciding to cancel.
