Motability How It Works

The most difficult part of the Motability Scheme at Picador is deciding which new vehicle you would like to drive because there is so much choice across the manufacturers we represent!  Whether it's Vauxhall, Renault or Dacia we have a team of Motability Specialists who will take you through every step of the process, so you will have a vehicle that meets all of your needs and requirements.

Many of the models available come with a £NIL Advance Payment so you could be driving away from Picador in no time at all.  

The process is quick and easy - All you do is agree to lease the vehicle over a three-year period, after which you just hand it back to us and start again with another brand new car, and a new contract.

Once you have selected your vehicle, paid the Advance Payment, if applicable, everything else is done for you including:-

• Insurance
• Servicing and maintenance
• Vehicle Excise Duty (the annual tax disc
• Replacement tyres
• Full RAC breakdown assistance
• Many adaptations at no extra cost
• Replacement glass, should you suffer a broken windscreen or window
• The only exception is if you exceed 60,000 miles during the three years in which you have the car: then you will be charged 5 pence per mile (inc. VAT) for every mile over that limit.

You qualify for Motability if you – or the person you care for – receives:-

• Higher Rate Mobility Component of the Disability Living Allowance
• War Pensioners’ Mobility Supplement

Simply exchange all or part of your allowance for your brand new car. Don’t worry if you don’t drive, you can nominate two drivers.

• No forms or paperwork
• No medical questions or assessments
• No waiting lists
• No credit checks

All you need do is come and talk to one of our Motability Specialists, test drive the model that's suitable for you and then bring us your

• Driving license or that of any planned drivers
• Letter of award entitlement
• Proof of your address (such as a recent utility bill)

No further assessments are required. Come and see us for an application pack

We know that customers from the Motability Scheme may have some additional requirements to adapt their vehicle.  Popular adaptations such as push-pull hand controls and left-foot accelerators are now included within the Motability car lease at no extra cost. Further extensive adaptations are available at more affordable rates, including boot hoists and swivel seats. Order adaptations at the same time as the new car, and the car will be delivered complete with the adaptations fitted.

A free guide to make choosing adaptations simple is available from Motability by calling 0800 093 1000 or talk to one of our Motability specialists.
