Question what do people think is going to happen after lockdown.
How do you think mobility is going to Handel backlog and car dealers.
Do you think prices are going to reflect on this?

Selenium greyWho knows, but with the extension of leases and other benfits, we as Motability customers do not need to worry about our cars during this global emergency.
More people are gonna want to own a car rather than use public transport than before.
I was due to exchange cars Tommorow, The dealer had my car well before lockdown. hopefully when they open again it’s still there, but who knows when that will be or in what format.. no one does..

Thanks, Is currently sitting in the dealers compound, i just hope one day soon i’ll get to pick it up. Maybe by the end of may…
Could be in 4 weeks Rox don’t listen to the doom and gloom on here
Wish I could still climb down into something sporty but I’m relegated to driving big old buses these days, nice enough in reality but no fun for the 8 year old in me.

Yeah, sometimes something has to give, to get what works for you.. My trade off was a lower car last time. So currently i’m driving a golf and before that was a c4 grand picasso and before that a qashqai. The problem with both was the small doors for my long legs getting in any car is not easy for me..
The worst thing about the golf is the seat. it’s a match edition and after 20 mins my back pain just gets worse.
Sat in the honda and was like this is so much more comfortable. my first ever car was a honda, prob 30 years ago now.. Test drive was real good and was rather wet and i’m getting the sporty one for my son..
sadly he passed away in 2017 before he could drive and loved / lived for cars.. back in 2017 we talked about the honda when it came out but was after i’d got the golf.. he said dad check this honda out. not been fun looking at cars this time, I’ve been in tears
rox, thanks for sharing your recent history with us. The loss of your son was clearly devastating to you at a time when life should have just been opening up for him. I lost my youngest son when he was just an infant, but I still carry him in my heart to this day. I don’t know whether it helps, but if I see something beautiful or moving like a sunset or a field that is a blaze of yellow, I talk to my son Ryan quietly in my head and say “look at that Ryan, isn’t it stunning”! He would have been 22 now, so he and I have seen some sights. It may sound slightly mad rox, but it works for me. Best wishes POPS.

It’s not been easy, especally for his two younger sister, they had only known life with Christian in it. (he liked chris) But life must go on, but it will affect us forever, nothing can change it and other’s just won’t truely understand how painful it is, every memory is a happy / sad one..
We don’t really even know what caused it, that’s the thing that’s so hard to handle and now this lockdown, dramademic going on and on every ad break on the telly the doom and gloom is broadcast, even on the few channels i do watch.. The youngest is now 8 and was 6, when he passed and now another 3 weeks of lockdown. What a life we living right now. We was due to go eurodisney for the easter weekend as well, a treat from granny for xmas.
Truth is if it’s your time it’s your time, we don’t control It. Time is so precious and we can never get it back.. Like now for what.. To not over run the nhs, so lifes gotta be put on hold… They ain’t fooling me or my kids… Is More to it I think, than they letting on.. Has this ever happened before.. The panic.. I’d trade with my son without a thought, if i had the chance, but that’s not how life works. Normally you get i’ll or it was an accident etc not your here in the afternoon and by dinner time you gone. so crazy
