The Motability Scheme

Top Picks From Snows On The Motability Scheme

With the recent news that BMW, Mercedes & Audi have left the Motability Scheme, you may be looking for a replacement. We have made a list of the top 10 cars from a variety of brands, which we think are a great fit

The Motability Scheme is designed to make it similar for eligible scheme members to access a new car that is adapted to their needs. You need to be on the Enhanced Rate of the Motability Component of Personal Independence Payment (PIP), the Higher Rate Motability Component of the Disability Living Allowance (DLA), War Pensioners’ Motability Supplement (WPMS) or the Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP) to be eligible to get a car on the scheme.

If the eligible member of the Motability Scheme does not drive, they can nominate a driver, such as a family member or carer, so they can still benefit from a vehicle tailored to their needs.

At Snows Motor Group, we are proud to help eligible customers make the most of their Motability Scheme allowance. Our team is on hand to help provide advice on eligibility and applications, explore the wide range of cars on offer, and provide guidance on adaptations to ensure the car meets your needs perfectly.
