Do You Qualify for the Ford Motability Scheme?
To be eligible to join the Motability Scheme, you need to receive one of the following mobility allowances and you must have at least 12 months’ award length remaining. Please note that the Attendance Allowance cannot be used to lease a car through the Scheme.
- Higher Rate Mobility Component of Disability Living Allowance (HRMC DLA): As of 11 April 2018, this allowance is £59.75 per week.
- Enhanced Rate Mobility Component of Personal Independence Payment (ERMC PIP): As of 09 April 2018, this allowance is £59.75 per week.
- War Pensioners' Mobility Supplement (WPMS): As of 11 April 2018, this allowance is £66.75 per week.
- Armed Forces Independence Payment (AFIP): As of 11 April 2018, the mobility element of the allowance is £59.75 per week.
Even if you can’t drive yourself, you could still get a car on the Motability scheme by nominating a family member, guardian, or carer as your driver.
You should have received an Award Notice with details of your allowance from the Department of Work and Pensions (DWP). If they haven’t sent you one, or if you’ve mislaid it, simply contact the DWP on 03457 123456.
