Motability Scheme Eligibility from Chippenham Motor Company in Wiltshire

The Motability Scheme enables motorists with a disability to use the mobility allowance given to them by the government to pay for a new car lease. If you receive one of the following allowances and are due to receive 12 months of payments, you may be eligible to join.

• Enhanced Rate of the Mobility Component of Personal Independence Payment;
• Higher Rate Mobility Component of Disability Living Allowance (HRMC DLA);
• Armed Forces Independence Payment; or
• War Pensioners’ Mobility Supplement.

There is no upper age limit to become a Motability user. The parents or guardians of children aged three years or over that receive the HRMC DLA are also eligible to apply on their behalf. Up to two named drivers can make use of a Motability vehicle, and a third can be added at an extra cost.

Find out if you are eligible to apply before beginning to search for the car you would like to lease. The Motability experts at Chippenham Motor Company can help, and more information can be found on the Motability Scheme website.
