Motabilty

Motability is a scheme set up in conjunction with the Government to allow registered disabled people to fund a car using their Government-funded Mobility Allowances. 

To find out how the scheme works, whether you are eligible and what vehicle you can fund, see below.

How the scheme works: 

1. Part or all of your Higher Rate Mobility Component of the Disability Living Allowance or War Pensioners Mobility Supplement can be used for a car for you. 
2. If you receive one of the above check your eligibility. 
3. Once you’re eligible, decide if you would like to Contract Hire a car. Contract Hire allows you to have a choice of a new car every 3 years, insurance and personal accident cover, servicing and maintenance. 
4. Lastly find the vehicle you can buy from our list below, and get the car that is right for you.   
   

Are you eligible?

• You need to be receiving either...
• Higher Rate Mobility Component of the Disability Living Allowance or
• War Pensioners Mobility Supplement. 
• For Contract Hire you will need to be receiving your allowance for at least another 12 months. 
• If leasing from Motability, if needed,  you could also opt out of driving and nominate up to two relatives or friends to drive for you.  
• Parents or Carers can also apply on behalf of a child aged three upwards. 
• Any proposed drivers must not have had any serious driving convictions, disqualifications, or endorsements within the last five years.   
  

Not meeting the requirements above will lead to non-acceptance. 
To check your eligibility yourself, please contact either…

• The Department for Work and Pensions (for Higher Rate Mobility Component of the Disability Living Allowance) or
• Service Personnel and Veterans Agency (for War Pensioners Mobility Supplement).
