with on ball dealerships and everything running perfect an in stock car(on site) can take as little as 4 days but 7 to 10 is the norm however with showrooms and motability etc just reopening we as yet are not back to norm. for new applications add to that the high numbers all ordering since the 1st and having to get confirmation of entitlement from a over run DWP there is a possible delay. a statement from Motability.
Due to high volumes of new to Scheme submissions, applications that require an allowance check are currently likely to be delayed by up to ten working days.
