What is Motability?

The Motability scheme enables disabled people to use their government funded mobility allowance to lease a new car. The scheme was set up in 1978 and has helped over 3 million people get mobile with a brand new vehicle.

Eligibility

If you receive either the Higher Rate Mobility Component of Disability Living Allowance, the Enhanced Rate of the Mobility Component of Personal Independence Payment (PIP), the War Pensioners' Mobility Supplement (WPMS) or the Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP), you can use that allowance to cover the monthly rentals of a MINI model of your choice over the next three years, with no additional costs. All you have to do is make an advance payment, which varies depending on the model.

How it works?

1. Choose You Vehicle

When choosing your vehicle there is a lot to consider, including cost, suitability and fuel consumption. To make sure you find a vehicle that best meets your needs speak to one of our trained specialists who will help match your specific requirements.

2. Visit Us At One Of Our Dealerships

3. Order Your Vehicle

Once you have decided which vehicle is right for you, your Motability specialist will complete your order with you using our simple online system. We will then send you an acceptance letter containing your Personal Identification Number (keep this safe as you need it to collect your vehicle).
