The Motability Scheme helps eligible people use their qualifying mobility allowance to lease a brand-new Volkswagen. It provides a simple and convenient way to enjoy a new car, with many of the everyday costs of motoring included as part of your lease.
From insurance and servicing to maintenance, breakdown cover and tyre replacement, the Scheme is designed to make running your Volkswagen as straightforward as possible.
At Western Volkswagen, our dedicated Motability Specialists are here to help you understand the Scheme, check your eligibility and find a Volkswagen that suits your individual needs.
Whether you are new to Motability or considering your next vehicle, this guide covers eligibility, what's included, vehicle adaptations and frequently asked questions to help you get started.
To be eligible for the Motability Scheme, you must receive one of the following qualifying mobility allowances:
You must have at least 12 months remaining on your qualifying allowance when you apply to join the Scheme.
A Motability lease includes many of the everyday costs of running your Volkswagen, including:
You will generally only need to pay for fuel or electric vehicle charging, plus any optional extras not covered by the Scheme.
Many Volkswagen models already include features that can make driving or travelling more comfortable and convenient, including automatic transmission, adjustable seating and driver assistance technology.
If you require additional adaptations, a wide range can be fitted to help with driving, accessing the vehicle or storing mobility equipment. Many popular adaptations are available at no extra cost when ordered at the start of your Motability lease, while more specialised adaptations may require an additional payment.
Adaptations are professionally fitted through the Motability Managed Adaptations Programme by approved installers.
Our Western Volkswagen Motability Specialists can help you explore suitable vehicles and adaptations based on your individual requirements.
You do not have to drive the vehicle yourself to join the Motability Scheme.
Your Motability lease can include up to three named drivers in total, allowing eligible family members, partners or carers to drive the vehicle. Named drivers must meet the Scheme's requirements and the vehicle must be used for the benefit of the disabled customer.
This means the Scheme can also provide mobility for customers who are unable to drive themselves.
