Are Motability still using the 12 week lead time for allowing you to place your order? Or have they lengthened it at all in response to the current worldwide situation?

If they haven’t do we think they should? I certainly do.

They could do but these delays have been on going for about 18 months now and still nothing so can’t imagine anything changing now.

When the delays started to raise its head and with my order time being July 21 I thought back at the end on 2020 it would be all over by the time I ordered and here we are now 18 months later and still the waits are still getting longer.

Nope still as it was!

They will extend your lease until the new car arrives, Which they benefit from hugely, as in most cases they recieve the same payment for an older car as they would a new one.

They make it sound as if they doing you the favour, but really are they?

I am leaving the scheme early, this coming week, I’m buying a new car that’s took 3/4 weeks to arrive.

Sorts out all my issues/ concerns moving forward and if they’re taking long now. It will only get worse down the line with more and more orders added.

Many in the industry are saying it’s the new normal. Not much stock sitting about as before, they selling less cars but making more profits. It’s all good for them and not so good for those who lease at discounted prices, like mb.

They could, they should but they won’t.

If I seem a little strange, that's because I am.
