The Motability scheme is a government-funded initiative designed to afford disabled people and their families a better, more cost-efficient mode of transport. With over three and a half million vehicles supplied to people all over the country since the programme's creation in 1978, it's been incredibly successful at achieving this.
The Motability Scheme is suitable for a wide range of different people. The scheme offers brand new cars, wheelchair accessible vehicles (WAVs), or a scooter or powered wheelchair, allowing you to choose a Motability vehicle that suits your needs best.
At John Clark, we are proud to be associated with this excellent scheme, and aim to deliver outstanding value on all of our vehicles and Motability offers across Scotland.
For full details about eligibility see our Am I Eligible page but you need to receive one of the following qualifying mobility allowance payments:
Department of Work and Pensions:
Social Security Scotland:
Veterans UK:
You also need to have at least 12 months left on your qualifying mobility allowance in order to apply for the scheme.
Once you know that you are eligible for the Motability scheme you can start to look for a Motability car. Your search may start online but you'll want to visit a dealership in person for more information about the car that you like, to test drive, and to make sure it's available on the Motability scheme with any adaptations you might need.
At John Clark, we go beyond what is expected to ensure that our Motability service is unparalleled, regardless of which of our dealerships you visit. Our Motability specialists are experienced in matching people to their ideal vehicle and mobility solution, and are available to answer any questions you have about the scheme or its benefits.
Once you have made your decision and given it a drive, where possible, you'll be ready to order your new vehicle. Our Motability specialist will discuss all the important things with you such as any advance payment needed, how much it will cost monthly, and if there any adaptations needed to make it more suitable for you.
They'll also discuss a timescale for your new car to arrive, which will take longer for some adaptations to be added, and agree a contact plan with you to keep you in the loop for your order.
Once your car arrives, the team will let you know and invite you to come and collect it at a time that is best for you and any other drivers who want to collect with you. You'll receive a full handover that will go over all controls and features of the car in as much detail as you want.
Insurance and tax are covered by the Motability scheme, you can read more about the full benefits here, so it's an easy and smooth process for you on the day of collection!
To book a test drive at your convenience, fill in an online enquiry form, call, or visit your nearest John Clark dealership. Our Motability specialists will be able to answer any and all questions that you might have and guide you through the process of getting your Motability scheme vehicle.
