Time to bring back the horse and carriage!
lol, I don’t think it will come to that.
But Brydo does have a point. We are already seeing AP’s near the £3,000 mark for some cars. Sooner or later, that will rise to near £5,000 for a larger vehicle that many on the scheme require. If you’re able to add a couple of thousand pound more to that say, then you will be able to buy outright a very decent 2nd hand car & get to keep whatever the weekly PIP benefit is down the line. Your PIP payment goes towards insurance, parts/servicing & AA/RAC membership – but you should still be well in pocket after all the sums are done.
I would bet my bottom dollar that the number crunchers at Motability HQ are doing their future sums even as I type!
