A guide to leasing your next car July - September 2015
Countdown to your next
Motability car
Firstly we’d like to thank you for choosing the Motability Scheme and we hope you’ve enjoyed your current car.
Now’s the time to start thinking about your next one! This brochure guides you through what you need to do next as
well as giving you tips on choosing your new car.
As you’ve already leased a car through the Motability Scheme, you’ll be aware of the many benefits of our worry-free
leasing package. Remember everything, except fuel, is included. You don’t have to worry about unexpected bills for
repairs and servicing, nor the extra costs of insurance, tyre and windscreen replacement or breakdown assistance.
• Consider adaptations which may make your
travelling experience safer or more comfortable
if your condition has changed – see more on page 11.
• Find a dealer at motability.co.uk and visit as many as you need to.
• Take a test drive to make sure the car you’re interested in is suitable for your needs.
• the
Make sure your name and address details are up to date with both the DVLA and
Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) or Veterans UK. Your driving licence details
and Certificate of Entitlement must match or there could be a delay to your application.
• Place your order with your dealer and tell them about anyone you wish to drive the car,
including yourself.
• When ordering your new car take these with you:
• Your driving licence if you wish to drive
• Certificate of entitlement from either the DWP or Veterans UK (you must have at least 12
months remaining on your award)
• Proof of address (e.g. recent utility bill)
• Nominated drivers’ driving licence and consent (see following bullet).
• Nominated drivers must give consent, either in person by going with you when you place
your order or by filling out the Driver Consent Form included with this guide.
• As part of the ordering process, you and your drivers will need to sign a Statement of
Responsibilities. This document simply confirms that you understand and agree to abide
by the Scheme rules around car usage.
• Tell your dealer if you have a personalised number plate and wish to transfer it onto your
new car.
• Your dealer will contact you to book
an MOT test for your current car (excluding
customers in Northern Ireland and Isle of Man).
This test checks the important safety features on
your car. But don’t worry, most cars sail through
without any problems. Once completed, make
sure you keep the certificate in your glovebox.
• Look out for your new PIN. We’ll send this to
you along with all the information about your
new lease and the Terms and Conditions. Your
secure PIN enables you to ‘sign’ all the paperwork
via the dealer’s computer. Remember to take it
with you when you pick up your new car.
• You don’t have to remove
adaptations, but if you want to, please
arrange this with your local adaptation
installer.
• delivery
Keep in touch with your dealer about the
date.
• Don’t worry if there’s a delay. The dealer
supplying your new car will arrange
for you to stay in your current car until the new one is ready. However, if you are in
a Low Mileage or Long Term Lease Extension and there is a delay, please call
0300 456 4566 to arrange this.
Delivery day!
• When collecting your new car, don’t forget to bring: Your driving licence plus the
letter we sent you which includes your PIN.
• Return your current car to the dealer supplying your new car.
• Hand back any documentation and equipment from your current car, such as the
manufacturer handbook and spare keys.
• The dealer will take a brief condition description of the car. Provided the car is in
good condition you could receive a £250 bonus a few weeks later.
• Check that you and/or your nominated drivers are on your new insurance
cover note.
• Make sure the dealer has your correct contact details so they can contact you
during your lease with important information such as service reminders.
• Before you enter your PIN, ask your dealer to give you a tour of the car. If you
don’t recognise any features please discuss these with your dealer before you leave.
Then drive away in your new car!

product specifications, features or prices at any time. All vehicles are shown for illustration purposes only. Motability Operations use all reasonable endeavours to ensure the content of this brochure,

Your named drivers
When you’re thinking about choosing your next car and who you’d like to drive, remember
two named drivers are included as part of your lease; these can be yourself, friends, family or
carers. You can also add a third driver for an additional cost by calling RSA Motability (RSAM)
on 0300 037 3737.
Here’s a reminder of a few rules surrounding who can drive your car:
• Named drivers should live within five miles
of the disabled customer’s address. We will,
however, consider requests to include drivers
outside of this range where this is essential to
support the customer’s mobility needs
• Drivers under 25 are restricted to cars with an
ABI Insurance Group 16 or lower and with a
power output of 115 brake horsepower (BHP)
or less (this does not apply to Wheelchair
Accessible Vehicles). It is therefore important to
consider whether you will require a driver aged
under 25 during your lease before you choose
your car. For more information speak to your car
dealer or visit the Car Search at motability.co.uk
• Only one named driver under 21 is permitted – this could be the disabled customer, or another
driver living at the same address
• Proposed drivers with certain convictions, disqualifications or endorsements within the last five
years will not be allowed. Speak to your dealer or RSAM for more information
• We will only accept drivers who have a legally valid driving licence. Drivers with a non-UK driving
licence will be subject to additional checks.
We are committed to keeping our disabled customers mobile, so we may consider requests to include drivers who do not
fully meet these guidelines where this is essential to support your mobility needs. In these cases, and in certain others, we
may talk to you about fitting a location tracker to your car. For more information go to motability.co.uk.Need more help than a
standard car provides?
If your needs have changed and a standard car is no longer the best
option for you, we also offer these other products and services to help
you stay mobile and independent.
Adaptations that make driving easier
Simple adaptations can make a big difference to your motoring
experience. Typically, adaptations fall into three categories: they can
help you drive, stow your wheelchair or scooter, or get in and out of the
car. You can find out more, see some of the most popular adaptations
in action and download our useful brochure ‘Your guide to adaptations’
at motability.co.uk.
Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles (WAVs)
If you find transferring from your wheelchair into a standard car and
storing your wheelchair difficult, then you could benefit from a WAV.
For more information please download our brochure ‘Your guide to
Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles’ from motability.co.uk.
Scooters and powered wheelchairs
If you no longer want to lease a car, you can use your allowance to lease a worry-free scooter or powered
wheelchair through the Motability Scheme. There are over 300 products to choose from and nearly all of them cost
less than your weekly allowance. You can download ‘Your guide to getting a Motability scooter or powered wheelchair’
at motability.co.uk.
